You might consider

303s are useful.

If the bookmark already exists when the user initiates the bookmarking process, then the client should let the user edit the existing bookmark, instead of attempting to create a new one. The only time the client will get to the POST step is if the bookmark didn't exist at the time the client searched for it.
