i use marks for two different purposes at different times: starting a
region, as well as pushing a position on the stack so i can come back to
it later. When starting a region, i like having transient mark mode on
so i can see the region highlighted. However, this becomes an annoyance
when im using the mark for simply remembering a position.
There's a push-mark command that sets the mark but doesn't turn on the
region.
