I've been playing Eve with my daughter for a while now (it's a special reward for cleaning up, listening, not having temper tantrums - you know the kind of things that 5 year olds have trouble with) and one of the basic things she has most trouble with is warping to mission bookmarks. Either the pilot has to navigate to the third level of a right click menu, or open the people and places window, find the right tab, open the tree to the agent missions and then do another right click. Either way, it's hellishly frustrating for her and judging by other calls for help in the rookie channels it's not just 5 year olds that have issues with this.
So, add an option to the overview setup (under celestials?) to make your bookmarks visible on the overview, set it on by default for new players.
And even experienced players can use this lifesaving feature: the bookmarks with their safespots can be added to the 'GTFO' tab on their overview enabling them to select a destination as their ship goes out of control and spam the warp button. Instead of trying to warp to a safespot 3 levels down in a right click menu.

Been thinking the same. I dont know what is the effect towards macro ppl... But yea, it would be nice to have option to drag bookmark into overview menu.

I have 26 safespots in every system I visit more than once a day. This would be INCREDIBLY problematic for me.
If you're going to do this, we need filters. I would normally say folders, but my bookmarks are all in folders apart from the safespots, 'cause I need quick access to those, BUT, I do have a consistent naming method, so I could hide all named ".s*" _____ ^ That is a sig line. It should be there without me having to put one in. |

This would be very good. It'd also be nice if you could align to the bookmarks on the overview.
In response to the previous poster, if you have a gazillion bookmarks in each system, have a tab just for them. You can then sort them by name, distance, whatever. Or just don't set them to show at all and continue playing exactly as you have been without any change whatsoever.

I hate not being able to align to bookmarks, and not being able to select them from overview.
Additionally, it would be nice if mission BMs were normal BMs instead of magical ones.

Whole heartedly agree.
Even if we could just drag and drop a bookmark onto the overview (or have it so we can setup a folder and add it).
The overview is there as a UI accelerator (look up UI design if you don't understand this) and seeing how often bookmarks are used I feel they should be on there as well.
The only thing I can think of is that CCP is in bed with the gankers and this would allow newbs to run away faster/more effectively. It would make the gankers need actual skill

I'd like to see CCP at least acknowledge this.
