You want that the so called "refinement" of the regions is always visible, even for unselected regions, right? No, that's currently not possible AFAIK, and I agree that it would be really useful. If nobody else has a solution, please make a feature request. Just M-x report-emacs-bug, and write what you described in your question. Regards, Michael.
