BTW, since our last discussion about it, I'm not sure it's going to be
a good change for everyone: when the mark is used to select a region on
which to operate, it'll usually be preferable for that mark to be
window-local, but for people who use the mark as a simple "remember this
location", they may occasionally by disappointed that it's not shared
among the various windows of a buffer.
Also, the mark-ring will definitely not want to become window-local, so
having a window-local mark but a buffer-local mark-ring could lead to
further surprises.
Not to say that it would be a bad change, but that it may require
a fair bit of twiddling until everyone's happy with it.
