Re: `insert' deactivates active region

    I do think it is a bug.  The problem is that deactivate-mark is global
    whereas mark-active (which is deactivated through the deactivate-mark
    variable) is buffer-local.

It is not a bug, but it could be a misfeature.

However, changing it would be risky--other things might break.  I
think it is safer to keep this unchanged.
