If Kim doesn't respond, as he didn't back then, I suggest you use your
best judgment to retain whatever seems useful from this patch.
Internal functions indeed don't need to be documented, but if the doc
string makes a significant difference in how easy it is to understand
what the function does, including a doc string can only help future
maintenance.
I know very little about cua-rectangle-mode, mainly around the tricks
it plays with the display code (and the special support these tricks
have in the display engine), so I cannot answer the questions that
Boruch asked.
Thanks.
