‘shell-command-on-region’ currently relies on the call to
(call-process-region start end shell-file-name replace ...
but I'm not sure if ‘call-process-region’ is not too low level
to handle rectangular regions. Otherwise, there should be a condition
in ‘shell-command-on-region’ to check for a rectangular region and
insert the output accordingly, so I see no way to avoid checking for
‘rectangle-mark-mode’ in ‘shell-command-on-region’.
