This has not been visible before but Calibre 1.6 is now showing these temporary marks.
The marks have been visible since 1.0 as a Star in the Cover Grid. With this release temp marks were expanded to include the list view and the icon switched to a pinhead. I have used Temp marks for 2 years, but because you can briefly see them now when you run a plugin you think there may be a problem?

So you're seriously suggesting to the person who created the Temporary Marks plugin about 2 years ago to stop using temp marks in his plugins because now you don't need his plugin to use the feature and you can see them?

Many of us, including myself, have been using temporary marks for 2 years (This is not a new feature) and not once have I ever had a problem so please let us know when you run into a conflict.

It is also why the plugin works. It would seem that 2 + 2 still equals 4, congrats on doing the math.

There are always bugs that crop up. The bug you mentioned has been fixed by Kovid and will be in the next calibre upgrade.
