    What about my original proposal (and code):

    1. Show the region size (highlighted with region face) when active.

I don't see that that is very useful.  The region is highlighted
itself.

    2. Highlight the column indicator when the cursor passes a user-defined
    column limit.

That sounds like a useful feature.
