You can also specify a function which collects arguments to be
used for each call to your bulk custom function. The argument
collecting function will be run once and should return a list of
arguments to pass to the bulk function. For example:
\\='((?R set-category get-category))
Now, `B R' will call the custom `get-category' which would prompt
the user once for a category. That category is then passed as an
argument to `set-category' for each entry it's called against."
