Subject: Re: rectangle operations - narrowing?

What I'd like to do, to start with, is, in effect, "narrow" to a region that
has the content of a given rectangle of text. The idea would be to operate
on this region in some way, and then widen again - in effect putting the
(possibly modified) rectangle back in context.
Ordinary narrowing limits what redisplay includes. But I think you
would want this new rectangle narrowing to have no effect on redisplay.
Right?
