Good point.

Ah, true. But the point is that if there is a high-level structure, it
should (at the least) include options for both the \nomarking as well as
optical layout. It could be a very useful shortcut to use the structured
markup to truncate the Untertitel in marks and lists. 

The requirements shouldn't be mixed, you're right, but they could live
side-by-side in a markup structure.
