You're right... I thought to this and I didn't know how to translate it in
French.

Ok.
So I'll add a button. So we'll have:
- Create bookmark
- Update bookmark (visible only when a bookmark is selected)
- Delete bookmark  (visible only when a bookmark is selected - currently
always displayed)

If we have an "inactive" display for buttons, instead of hidding them, I
could just use this display. Please tell me which one you prefer.
I used "Update" instead of "Rename" because the work to save both (the new
name and the new filters) is already done.

And when changing the selected item to "New bookmark", I'll reload the page
and empty all the fields.

Do you agree with all these changes? Is it closer than the behavior you
expect?

Hugues.
