It would be great if this could be used to make the whole rectangle
system less wierd. E.g., cut onto the normal kill-ring, and use a
`yank-function' property to properly deal with yanking them.
This could be a good thing, especially if we make register
commands handle `yank-function' also.
It would be nice to have a special `rectangle-mode' which would make
_all_ the normal kill/copy commands such as C-w and M-w deal in
`rectangles' (and use a highlighting hack to make an active region
really look like a rectangle).
I don't think this makes sense as a mode. I think that operating on a
rectangle is something that many users want to do once in a while, not
something certain users want to do all the time or that you always want
in certain files.
Maybe it could be a temporary mode
activated when you gave a special `set-rectangle-mark' command.
That interface could be a good one for rectangles.
