Thank you for the feedback.  I'll be happy to hear what others think.

I've been using transient-mark-mode lately, and I actually prefer that
the proposed feature doesn't activate the region automatically, as I
don't always want to operate on the contents immediately.

But I understand your point about user expectations.  We could
accommodate both preferences by expanding the option to accept the
values nil, 'push and 'activate.
