Currently, Buttons in Experience Builder can only be connected to the following items:

It would be useful if they could also be connected to Bookmarks, in a similar manner to Views e.g., select Bookmarks at the top drop-down, and then have an additional drop-down choice of which specific bookmark.

The reason for this is that the Bookmark widget allows the creation of Bookmark Views, where not only can the location be captured, but also the visible layer selections can be adjusted at the click of a button. Users may want to deploy this functionality via buttons that mirror the style and appearance of other buttons already on the layout for the functions listed above.

Currently, bookmarks can only be executed via the Bookmark templates, which can include button-like objects. But they are not the same as those from the Button widget in terms of style and appearance. Getting them to match as best as possible requires additional work via the advanced template, which seems unnecessary when the Button widget already exists.
