Would it be too confusing to have it behave as a toggle with no prefix,
but "always mark multiple articles" when used with a numeric prefix?

To complicate things further, I think it would be worth making sure that
group marking in *Group* and article marking in *Summary* work the same.
This stuff is super prone to muscle memory, that consistency would be
nice.
