Libraries API is an api for storing shared libraries (like wyswyg api does with tiny mce, fck editor) http://drupal.org/project/libraries

It'll add an additional depedency, Perhaps markers should be stored in there?

Or more useful, use libraries for used for custom markers?

Having custom files in the module folder seems like accident prone.

I'd be willing to try and make a patch, if anyone else finds it's desirable.

Yes - havin module extensions (custom markers) in the module directory is very annoying when it comes to updating the module.

Agreed. I'd be interested in a patch if anybody gets to it before I do.

Same here. I just blew away a client's markers by accident with drush. Not too hard to restore them, but inconvenient.
