Not quite what you were seeking, but I also noticed that if you do not
change the Unique ID between versions of books, when you load the new
version (and say 'yes' to over-writing the old version), any marks from the
previous version are preserved. BUT, as Dustin notes, they might not be in
the right place relative to the text beneath!
