Say the files in the dired buffer are photos/songs or so. I mark all of
them, or those of them I'm interested in. I open the files with a
viewer or vlc or whatever. There I have a look at them, in the same
order as they originally appeared in dired. Now say I am interrupted,
and/or I have deleted some of the files, and want to resume with the
rest of the files, or some other subset. I.e. I want to mark subsets
(of subsequent files) in a dired buffer to look at the files in this
order, and the most natural way for me to do this is to use the region
for marking.
Michael.
