Thanks for the details. Sorry about not getting it.

OK. Confirming:
1. You could use `C-u <some number> m', and it would
be about as easy (number of keystrokes). You
might have to guess <some number>, if you wanted
only some of the remaining files.
2. The point is that, regardless of _why_ you might
want to mark the files in the region, doing that
should just work, where "work" means that any file
with any part of its line in the active region
gets marked. (Likewise, for unmarking, flagging,
changing marks, etc.)
As you put it:

As I think I've indicated, I agree 100%. And I think
the fix is trivial, and it has already been given in
this thread (more than once). The bug, found by
Stephen Berman, was presumably just a typo in the
first place:
(progn (goto-char end) (line-beginning-position))
should be
(progn (goto-char end) (line-end-position))
Hopefully someone will apply that fix.

In a short while, flights will be almost free, in
money terms - unfortunately for world health. ;-)
