Bookmarks in the places menu / integration

I totally agree in a sense. The current version of nautilus on my
machine does this already to a degree: The places menu on each spacial
window and in that menu my custom folders as well as the generics
(Trash, CDCreator, etc.) are contained. I think the old browser
nautilus should be converted to use this rather than continue with the
notion of bookmarks.

This places menu, however, should also have menu items for add and
remove/manage.
