Full disclosure: I use transient-mark-mode.

Item-1
======

My upvotes for de-activating mark after `prepend-to-register' and
`append-to-register.  

I always use C-g after append-to-register.  If I don't, I find the
highlighted region expanding with cursor motion annoying.  


Discussions on Bug#10056 seem to suggest that the current position is
ambivalent.  The discussion seems to favor status quo rather than
provide a use case that will support the status quo.

Item-2
======

1. Enable transient-mark-mode
2. C-SPC
3. <down> <down>
4. C-g
5. C-u C-x r s a

Now as a transient mark user, I find disappearance of a non-highlighted
text in (5) surprising.  Comments?
