Hi Nick,
Ah, of course, you're right; it would result in a change in behavior.
While I can certainly tweak the patch to maintain the old behavior in the
case of a negative or zero arg, stepping back, I don't quite understand the
reasoning for the current behavior. If a user has gone to the trouble of
providing a negative arg, it doesn't seem intuitive that
org-agenda-bulk-mark just does the same thing as if no negative arg was
passed in.
For what it's worth, the only caller that I see for this function in the
codebase is the one in org-agenda-bulk-toggle that I was aiming to fix with
this patch. Of course there could be folks relying on the current
behavior, but I'd be curious as to what they're looking to do.
Madan R.
