Just like the issue with cursor color, cua-mode needs to be othogonalized
and better integrated into the rest of Emacs.  I'd really like to see
some of cua-rect's code&behavior to be part of the defaults.
E.g. C-x r SPC with transient-mark-mode ON should highlight the
rectangle and C-w/M-w should then operate on that rectangle.
