my impression is that if you use a disk-at-once burner (as you need to
to avoid gaps) then the precise placement of markers is less
important. you'll export a single wave file, with a TOC file, give
that to cdrdao or equivalent, and the track markers will simply be
used to provide, ahem, metadata, that a CD player can use. if you
don't do this, and instead use track-at-once burning, the CD standard
mandates gaps between tracks.
