My experience is that a web interface (which tracks different versions of 
the same patch) is a lot easier when it is a major change with lots of 
revisions.   

In general, I find cutting & pasting patches into emails clumsy and error 
prone.  In general, git is much better suited for sending patches around.

It's rather the reverse: ensuring that the non-mark phase is correct (in
not having mark calls), but I couldn't think of a good name.

done.
