Do you think it could make sense to keep diredc bookmarks in the normal
bookmarks by arranging for the normal "directory bookmarks" to be
"hijacked" by diredc (i.e. not to open a new dired buffer but to open
the dir within diredc) when called from diredc?

You'd still have the downside that the general bookmarks include all the
other non-directory bookmarks, so maybe it's not a good idea anyway.
