Subject: [FEATURE REQUEST] Make org-copy-subtree and org-cut-subtree work on an active region

When calling either org-copy-subtree or org-cut-subtree, check if there
is an active region that starts on a headline and contains at least one
more headline of the same level. If so, copy / cut all the subtrees
touched by the region. This saves the user having to count the subtrees
he / she wants to operate on in order to use the number as a prefix
argument for the command. This change would make the process easier and
provide visual feedback.
Optionally require that the active region fully encloses two or more
headlines and nothing else, i. e. that it begins at the start of one
headline and terminates at the end of another headline.
Thanks.
