Description

 * Xreader version (xreader --version)
 * 2.8.3
 * Distribution - (Mint 17.2, Arch, Fedora 25, etc...)
 * Various

Any thoughts on plugins becoming a possibility? I use an app that keeps track of bookmarks and positions of read eBooks, and I'd like to keep those platforms in sync with xreader, but they use their own format. I'm using my own compiles for now, but it'd be nice to simply make a plugin instead. (My own changes to my xreader compile simply gets bookmarks and read positions and writes them to another location which is synced by other software to keep various laptops, tablets, and rigs up-to-date.)

Research direction

No files, tests, or plugin entry point are named. Start by reviewing Xreader's current extension structure and the local bookmark/read-position changes described in the issue. Done would require a defined plugin mechanism that supports synchronizing those positions with external software, including its format boundary and integration expectations.
