How is usefulness of the stack reduced? This is an honest question,
because I don't understand the meaning of what you're saying. If
anything, the usefulness of the stack would increase in this case?
I suppose this could be a customizable feature, to use the stack for
automatically saving marks, but I really don't like it. I'd rather
have a separate variable for automatically saved marks in that case.

If I understand you correctly; this is like without the stack, only
with a handy key? Sure, I think that complements the original
suggestion (`U' and `C-u U') well.

Hey, it makes sense to follow the cool kids. And Bongo is pretty cool
already, don't you think?

Does it have to be anything fancier than this?
(defun bongo-invert-marks ()
"Mark unmarked tracks, and unmark marked tracks in the buffer."
(interactive)
(save-excursion
(goto-char (point-min))
(while (not (eobp))
(if (bongo-marked-track-line-p)
(bongo-unmark-line)
(when (bongo-track-line-p)
(bongo-mark-line)))
(forward-line 1))))
