No it wouldn't. It might actually make LESS people quit since the game would be more fun for many. Traveling fast is not THAT critical to how much fun you have is it? And if it is...try a frigate.
I take it you haven't flown a freighter before? Or been part of a 100 player battleship blob moving from one region to the other?
Think of this way (not wishing to start a bob post but seeing as they are usually at war with someone its logical to choose them) Bob form a 100 person gang at 6pm on Monday evening from Fountain, their war target is some alliance in say curse region (not wishing to bring up the current war  ) if there are no bookmarks at all how long would it take for bob to get its forces to curse and how many of its gang would remain before they have to log off and go to bed? Also If say bob gang members suffer losses and their clones put them back in fountain how long would it take for reinforcements?
Feel free to substitute bob. fountain/curse with any alliance/region name at all...
Simply remarking that you should get something faster doesn't help!

Having the warp to 0km option:
1. Will help alleviate the database strain, if coupled with the removal of gtg, stg and gts BMs.
Warp to zero will not do that, removing BMs will do that, which has to happen anyway.
Bookmarks will probably be removed anyway, what is the use of the 0km option with a database table full of useless information. However imho they will still allow you the ability to create new bookmarks for safe spots/sniper spots etc, but due to not requiring gate to gate instas the number of entries in the database will be significantly reduced.

Casual players have hours to spend making BMs to every place they go? And why does a casual player need to travel across the galaxy at an accelerated pace, because he/she is casual and shouldn't have to wait to do anything?
I shouldn't have to wait for PvP targets, I want everyone to have a warp to me option.
It sounds to me that the reason you don't want 0km option is that you want easy kills - no effort involved if all possible targets warp in at 15km where you can be sitting waiting for them. Try training for the use of an interdictor in 0.0 space or medium warp bubbles.
