If I understand correctly, the issue is whether `C-x o' should
deactivate the mark?  It seems like it did this in the olden times, but
it doesn't do this now?

I think the current behaviour makes sense, so I'd rather not change it
back -- I can't recall seeing any other complaints about this, and Emacs
has worked this way for at least some years now.

So I'm closing this bug report.
