We didn't get something better. The point here is that a Dired user would expect/wish that the interactive call behaves differently. I do. Do you know how i noticed the bug? Because i assumed that a prefix argument will unmark as other Dired marks, and i got an error (!). The right thing here is to unmark with a prefix argument: other thing than that would be unconsistent. Not Dired style, and pretty useless. For me its not a problem, because i use Dired+. Other people are not as lucky.
