emacs -Q

M-x delete-selection-mode     ; turn it on
M-: (electric-indent-mode -1) ; turn it off

I was hoping that this would just restore the behavior present in Emacs
forever, prior to Emacs 24.4: C-j would insert a newline and indent, and
RET would insert a newline.

The regression is that C-j does not delete the active region.  For
example, in `emacs-lisp-mode':

Select the text from the middle of a line through eol (the newline
char).  Ensure that point is at the start of the selection, not the end.
Hit `C-j'.  The rest of the line is indented on the next line, instead
of being killed.  If point was instead at eol then the rest of the line
is intact and a newline is inserted and point indented.  In sum, the
selected text is not killed.

A fix is to add this sexp to delsel.el:

(put 'electric-newline-and-maybe-indent 'delete-selection t)

I see that you have already added this sexp instead:

(put 'reindent-then-newline-and-indent 'delete-selection t)

I can't speak to whether that second sexp is correct or should be
removed.  I don't use command `reindent-then-newline-and-indent'.
