There is menu "Mark", in the menu there is "m" for mark, and "d" for
flag.

If m is for marking then (dired-toggle-marks) should work with
success, because why it should not work if the file is flagged with C,
because it is not a file for deletion. 

If is is for marking and d for flaging means to prepare for deletion,
then "m" does not flag, it marks, so there are no "other flags" but
there is just one mark and other flags. If menu separates marks from
flags, then the function should separate marks from flags too, maybe
except for flagged files.

Confusing, but I don't see a logic why I should not be able to toggle
marks on files that have been recently copied or renamed.
