FWIW, I think these looks like useful changes.  Thanks for working on it.

Oh, I must've missed it.  Thanks.

I'm not sure I can be of much help, since I've never used cua-mode and
know nothing about it.

I'm mostly here to nudge along the work of improving the
documentation.  I think this is important work, if somewhat thankless.
I therefore suggest that you revisit this when you find some time, and
in the meanwhile we can see if someone more knowledgeable than me
picks up the ball.

Thanks again for the update.

Best regards,
Stefan Kangas
