^ Given how large this is - if we want to make sure the sentence
structure is "nice", should we not instead add a:

    mark = match mark {
        PruneMark::Protected => "keep protected",
        PruneMark::Keep => "keep",
        PruneMark::KeepPartial => "keep partial",
        PruneMark::Remove => "remove",
    },

Because `KeepPartial` would otherwise have a hyphen in it, which I'd
find kind of awkward.
