Can you just broadcast the location of the bookmark even if other fleet members don't have it in their bookmark list?
Yes you can "just broadcast the location of the bookmark even if other fleet members don't have it in their bookmark list".

Instead your using magic to add special cases which not only increases the depth of difficulty for newer players but increases the headache for FCs. Special casing is BAD. If an object is warp-able, it should be warp-able for a fleet.
Combat scanning is in a good place, when you don't already know your targets location. Players who are good at scanning down a ship 'somewhere in system' are valued by corporations, alliances and FC's alike.
Combat scanning is broken when your on-grid with your target.
While increasing the time it takes to scan targets down would have achieved our 2nd (long-range fleets) and 3rd goals (bombing runs), it wouldn't do anything for our 1st goal (player participation), and it would break system-wide combat scanning.

Does this mean that, if we broadcast a location (such as a scanned target), the fleet can warp via the broadcast? Or will this be limited to the aforementioned locations that were already warpable? Or am I missing the mark entirely?
You can't broadcast a probe result as a Warp-to now, so it won't be broadcastable after the changes.
Midnight Hope wrote:"Bookmarks (newly created bookmarks will have a delay before being broadcastable)"
How much of a delay will it be?
Will the broadcast allow members without the BM (in other corps) to get the BM and be able to warp?
The delay is unrelated to corporate bookmark propagation delay. We'll tell everyone the delay between creating a bookmark and broadcasting it soon! =)
Any member of the fleet will be able to warp to the broadcast, regardless of corporate or alliance membership.

3. Can I fleet warp my fleet to a personal bookmark, or one belonging to somebody else once it has been broadcast?
1. You can fleet-warp to a fleet member as you can now.
2. You can not fleet-warp to a personal bookmark or probe result. Instead, you can broadcast that bookmark and fleet members can warp themselves. Or a fleet member can warp to the bookmark, then you can fleet-warp to the fleet member.
3. You can't fleet-warp to broadcast bookmarks.
