What I would usually do is make a keyboard macro that operates on the
current line and then moves to the next line.  That way if I run it
multiple times it will do the right thing.

Then to apply it to a region, I would 'C-x n n' (narrow-to-region),
move to the start, and run it enough times.  You can do this using C-u
a lot.  Finally, 'C-x n w' to widen to the whole buffer again.
