I still don't understand why these marker entries in the undo list are
made. Maybe someone else knows?

I mean, when we undo, markers may have to be adjusted, that's clear. But
why only specific markers, the ones having marker entries? Why not go
go over all buffer markers and adjust them according to what is undone?

I don't get it :-/.
