Have you looked at the code for c-i-l-o-region? At a quick glance, I
can't see where the distinction is made between indentation adjusted and
not adjusted. I don't actually use transient-mark-mode myself, so this
hasn't annoyed me one way or the other.
Is the distinction there for a reason, or did it just get there by
accident? The defun is only several (as opposed to many) years old, so
the evidence should still be available in the bzr repo.
