#154 Should rsiwp:bookmarkStart (and end) elements be created when includeWordBookmarksBoolean is false?

[Steven Calderwood]

The wordml2simple process will make rsiwp:bookmarkStart and rsiwp:bookmarkEnd elements when includeWordBookmarksBoolean is true or false. I wonder if it should be making these when includeWordBookmarksBoolean is false. It strikes me that it shouldn't be, but I don't know if that is the best answer. I think I'd recommend adjusting the two templates that match w:bookmarkStart and w:bookmarkEnd in wordml2simple and not creating the rsiwp:bookmarkStart and end elements if $includeWordBookmarksBoolean is false.

This is absolutely not a priority to me. Just stumbled across the behavior and thought it raised an interesting question.

Currently includeWordBookmarksBoolean controls whether the bookmarks are output in the DITA as <data> elements, not whether or not they are captured at all. Thus, I think the current behavior is correct as there may be other things you need the bookmark markers for.</data>

Cool. Makes sense to me.
