save-excursion and the mark

From: Stefan Monnier Subject: save-excursion and the mark Date: Sun, 22 Feb 2015 23:44:13 -0500 User-agent: Gnus/5.13 (Gnus v5.13) Emacs/25.0.50 (gnu/linux)

`save-excursion' is defined to save&restore the mark (as well as its being active or not). But I'm having a hard time finding a piece of code where we actually make use of this. Can someone point me to such code (either in Emacs or in some external package)? I.e. point me to code which would misbehave if save-excursion were to stop saving&restoring the mark (and/or its activation status). Stefan
