This is a problem if I want to perform multiple actions on the marked entries. Here is a use case. I use capture.org to collect actionable items throughout the day. Occasionally I view a special "refile" agenda in which I perform bulk actions on selected entries such as tagging them, turning them into TODO items, and filing them into appropriate targets in other files. It would be far more convenient if the bulk action mark persisted after each action.
