Description

Wikivoyage places do not have a stable id to be referenced by, which is bad for bookmarks - the closed are:
- index in site (might change often)
- coordinates (will probably never change)

for now coordinates are probably the best, but long term it would be good to figure out something reliable

Research direction

The issue names no files or tests. Start by tracing how places and bookmarks are represented in this TypeScript React Native client, then compare site indexes and coordinates as candidate identifiers. Done means a reliable stable identifier for bookmarked Wikivoyage places has been selected and implemented.
