narrow-to-region is useful e.g. when you want to apply a command that
usually continues to the end of the buffer only to a part of the text,
sth like you do a query-replace and hit `!', or like repeating a
keyboard macro many times. 

if you need multiple modes, there's mmm-mode, two-mode and another one
i don't recall right now. none of these is a really perfect solution,
though.
