Yes, thanks.
Some Emacs doc and source-code comments refer to deletion flags as "marks"
(which they are), so it helps to always specifically say "flagged for deletion"
instead of just "flagged".
Then any ambiguity will arise only wrt the terms "marked" or (more likely)
"mark", and that needs to be taken care of contextually. For example, Dired lets
you use `* c' to change "marks", and in that context the `D' flag is considered
a mark.
Always associating "flag" with "deletion" will go a long way to making things
clear.
