Is there a mark-thing-at-point?


No


If there were then mark-word-at-point could be implemented using that.


It could also be implemented rather simply using primitive functions.
The thing-at-point code is hairy and ugly, so it seems backwards to base
other simpler functions on it...
Using thing-at-point to make mark-thing-at-point (and then mark-work-at-point etc) would mean that it is consistent and eaiser for the user to remember.
