Hi Tino,
I don't like this part of your proposed change. The name of the function is
`ibuffer-get-marked-buffers'. Adding a new argument to change the meaning of
the function is not a good idea.
Instead, there should be a new function `ibuffer-get-buffer-at-point' or some
such, to reflect the meaning you wish to express. There may even already be
such a function, I'm not all that familiar with ibuffer.el.
TC> Ibuffer: 'w' and 'B' default to the buffer at current line.
TC> This is similar as dired-copy-filename-as-kill.
TC> Before this patch, when there are no marked buffers

This part sounds reasonable to me. I like the idea of defaulting behavior when
there is no current selection or region.
