Hi Stefan:

Look at the attached gif. Where I select with the mouse several time,
and then M-w; but the region (mark) is not "properly updated" to the
selected region, just the point is updated, not the mark.

Actually the mouse selection does not act as the region at all. Maybe
this is intended... I just don't get why.

I can only set the mark with C-SPC?
