Thank You for your continued support and contributions!
Bookmarks allow you to save your current position within a track so that you can returnto it at a later time. Bookmarks are saved on a per directory basis or for individual(saved) playlists.
I don't see anything in the Wikipedia article on M3U on putting a directory in an m3u file. It would be nice, but would make things like shuffle troublesome (You have to search every directory in the m3u and create a virtual playlist to shuffle). In any case, I know for a fact that it doesn't work in Rockbox because I tried it
So long as all the files are in the same directory it's as simple as just playing a file and then bookmarking it when you're done. Next time you play it (the bookmark), Rockbox will create a fresh playlist of all the files in that directory.
I just realized that you don't need bookmarks to do what you want. Or playlists. All you need to do is play one of the files from that directory and Rockbox will make the playlist for you based on the files in that directory.
And I checked out one of the links in the Wikipedia article, and it said, "Support for M3U features varies wildly. iTunes, for example, will only render the first entry in an M3U file." So I guess Rockbox just doesn't support that particular feature of M3U files.

I don't understand what you mean with shuffling. The playlist would just combine all the folders into one list, wouldn't it?
But what if you eventually delete the song that you bookmarked? Such as podcasts where, like you mentioned, you add and delete files daily. Wouldn't the bookmark disappear?
I do like your idea of the DOS thing; I didn't know you could do that.
