It would help if you'd tell what changes in how region works you are
alluding to. I use Emacs for the last 30 years, and the way region
works for me didn't change at all, AFAICT. So I'm really puzzled by
what you say here.
Mark a region, immediately press e.g. "A". The region is zapped and
replaced by an A.
That used to insert an A at the insert point since TECO emacs until a
few releases back.
(There is also an implicit mode in the new behavioutr: Only regions just
created exhibit the incompatible zap behavioutr.)
In any case, whenever a backward-incompatible change happens, there's
usually a way, called out in NEWS, to get back old behavior.
How about keeping the accepted interface and document in NEWS how to
make it work in a new, incompatible way?
