I didn't follow the conversation but:
Why traverse the string again? You already traversed it by "--- ".. then you can 
leave out the mark: :mark clause.. also you should use [thru newline] to prevent 
another 'dumb' loop of the parser...
 
rule: [
        "===" copy header thru newline 
                (append header " (FIRST LEVEL)"
                 append full-contents header)   | 
        "---" copy header thru newline 
                (append header " (SECOND LEVEL)"
                 append full-contents header)   | 
        thru newline
]
 
parse/all "..." [ some rule ]
