I am using similar function all the time.

(defun read-from-buffer (&optional value buffer-name mode title keymap place highlight-list minor-modes)

I suggest you implement some of these features:

- I like to designate offen the buffer-name, it becomes more
  descriptive

- Some text is in different modes, some strings are in html-mode, some
  are in markdown-mode, some in asciidoc mode, some are SQL mode, and
  so on;

- I may need to pass keymap to function

- I pass some minor-modes when necessary

PLACE is something related to database, like database, column, ID,
when I edit database objects, it is not related and not necessary to
this general function
