Resetting Safari's does not delete your bookmarks. Quoting from it's  
online help:
"Resetting Safari clears the history, empties the cache, clears the  
Downloads window, and removes all cookies. It also removes any saved  
user names and passwords or other AutoFill data and clears Google  
search entries.

In addition, any open windows are closed and a new window opens. The  
new window has a new history for the Back and Forward buttons and the  
SnapBack buttons."

It doesn't "muck" with your keychain any more than it "mucks" with it  
to save the names and passwords in the first place. In short,  
resetting Safari is no big deal. I do it all the time.
