I find this to be a great feature from vim, and I miss it.

I've looked around, and it seems that one can add the current position to some mark ring, and then come back. But that's explicit. I need to know ahead that I'll need to remember where I am, add it to the ring, and move. Normally, I don't know I'll need this until it's too late.

How could this be implemented?

    I'm not familiar with what `C-o` and `C-i` do in Vim, but what you describe is very similar to `C-u SPC` in Emacs. Did you try that? – wvxvw May 10 '18 at 13:30

    @wvxvw: Seems like what he's looking for is automatically adding certain positions to the `mark-ring`, as opposed to having to explicitly do so ahead of time. That's addressed in the duplicate question. – Drew May 10 '18 at 15:43
  • @wvxvw: Yeah, that's precisely what I meant when I said "one can add the current position to some mark ring". Drew is right here. I'll see if the duplicate he found implements everything I want. – Ivan Perez May 10 '18 at 21:05
