I now understand what Andrea wanted in his initial request  -- transient-rectangle-mode.  In this mode, you would see the normal region selected by transient-mark-mode *and* the rectangle region in a different face.  So that the built-in Emacs rectangle functions just work.

It seems a very reasonable.

Andrea, have you filed a feature request like Kevin suggested?
