I would say `--mark-auto` should prevent marking already-installed, non-
upgradable packages as manually installed. Otherwise there is no way (to
my awareness) to get "apt-get install, but never mark any packages as
manually installed". Those particular semantics are necessary to upgrade
a specific subset of packages without manually filtering out those
packages that actually are upgradable.
