Is this actually valid?
Such a change has a built-in assumption, I think, that
marks are symmetric.
Just because we ended up with mark X on input doesn't mean
that the reverse path route exists with mark X too.
In fact I can't even see a valid way to specify a mark for
the RPF lookup.
Maybe you can convince me otherwise :-)
