No right-click option for Bookmarks, keyboard shortcut and menu entry hard to find

[Cefn]

I struggled navigating the Nautilus interface to find a mechanism to add items to Places, before finally looking up online to find a keyboard shortcut. When navigating e.g. in /home/user the "Bookmark this item" entry is greyed out (and essentially invisible with the contrast settings of the default Ubuntu Gnome theme) apparently because the Home folder is already mapped to Places, so it can't be added as a bookmark.

By extensively exploring documentation I learned the long way round there is a Bookmarks entry (which is invisible until the first item is added). Altogether this meant it was extremely hard to figure out how to use Nautilus to create shortcuts.

Preferably, a right-click entry on a folder would offer an 'add as Bookmark' menu entry.

The current version has an "add to bookmark" to the popdown menu from the location bar which is easier to find/fixes that issue
