GO BACK editor option needed

[GoogleCodeExporter]

What steps will reproduce the problem?
1. Edit a big file with the cursor on any line.
2. JUMP to another line by scrolling to it, hitting CTRL-G, or click on the
code explorer.
3. Then try to get back to the line you were on. There is no way except to
remember the line you were on.

What is the expected output? What do you see instead?
Many editors (like Visual Studio) save a linear history of file offsets of
where the cursor is located; i.e. list of bookmarks. This is sort of like a
history of changes where you can CTRL-Z to undo them. You don't even know
it's doing it until you needed. So you can jump around the code and look to
see what other parts are doing. Then, when you're through exploring, you
hit CTRL-MINUS (or whatever) to jump back (or CTRL-PLUS to go forward) in
order of navigation.

What version of the product are you using? On what operating system?
1.9.9.7 on XP
