It's just possible that \global \mark would do the trick. Otherwise,
immediate writes and reads look like a good solution to me.

Well, when I do an unvbox on the vtop which has the marks, it does work

I would start by looking at your comparison with \null, Ron :
if you look at TB, p.~351, you will see that \null is defined
as \hbox {}, which is a pretty unlikely value for a null mark.

The problem though is that totally screws up the layout :(
Yes, that is to be expected, because of TeX's modes. I wonder
whether the solution might lie in

If you have got to a point where everything works except that the right-hand
side has slipped to a measurable extent (viz. the height plus depth of the
left-hand side), then you could measure the left-hand side as an initial
operation, store that measurement, and start the right-hand side with

Thanks to everyone who responded. Here is a short synopsis of the problem as
well as my solution.
The problem is simply that a \mark{} within a \vtop (or \vbox) does not
propagate out to the main list. Thus, it is not possible to use a mark
directly to find out what footnotes (for example)

I had to face a much more complicated problem comparing to your problem. The
problem was that I wanted automatic footnote rule in bidi; if the first
footnote rule in a page was a RTL footnote, then the footnote rule in that
page should appear on the right hand side, no matter what next footnotes
