Hi Stefan,

reflecting this question a little bit further:

as expressive settings of `push-mark' are removed, some functions
while rely upon and fail then.

However, `push-mark' is a very basic and considerable
editing command. If a function needs it, it should implement it at place.

Suggest keeping things apart: move functions should
move, not deliver a hair-cut. :)

If more is needed, another function should take over than.

All-at-once essays create complexity and never ending
bugs finally.

So far, think simplifying is worthwhile on the longer run.


Andreas
