When you have filtered frames using a display
filter, "Mark All" will mark all the displayed items. You can then use a
different diplay filter to match some other packets, mark them and so on. Then
you can save all the marked frames without having to use a super-complex display
filter to match all the frames you want.
So, yes... it is used :-)
However, when the focus is on the input widget for
entering a filter, it might be nicer to have it bound to the same text editing
function as you have in emacs. You could file an enhancement request for having
the text editing options available in the filter input widget.
Cheers,
Sake

Subject: Re: [Wireshark-dev] Is 'mark all
packets' functionality widely used(or is it useful?)?
I see. Thanks!
Of course we can mark the excluded ones
and save 'unmarked packets' for this scenario, however I feel 'saving
unmarked' is not intuitive for end users.
