  Yeah sure I will add that in next version.

  The hgremotenames (https://bitbucket.org/seanfarley/hgremotenames/src) extension has very good module docstring which I plan to import once I ported enough functionality. If will port it just now, it will be like "it does not do what it says". Or I need to split up the docstring and to port some bit of it with each functionality added.
  And to mention, this is not an extension. This functionality is moving directly to core to improve bookmarks.

Yeah I agree with you. This series is porting things from hgremotenames extension to core. The extension has all these functionality which I tried breaking up in individual pieces and send as patches.  I will try to improve the ordering of how things are introduced in the next version of this series.
