It is also marked in all windows (i.e. the highlighting of the "future
marks" is also applied to the buffer, not just the window), AFAIK.
But it's only applied to the region of the buffer that's visible in the main
window, so other windows won't see any of it unless they show an overlapping
part of the buffer.
