A bookmark is more than a name.
The first line of the doc string says this:
Association list of bookmarks and their records.
That's wrong, or at best misleading. Each entry in the alist is a
_bookmark_. That is, each entry is a bookmark "record", whose car
is the bookmark name, and whose cdr is the associated bookmark data.
The doc should say something like this:
"Association list of bookmark names and bookmark data."
or
"Association list of bookmark records." (and then say what a record is)
