Thanks, this looks good.  I think we also need a similar change for
function "mouse-drag-and-drop-region", which is used when the variable
of the same name is non-nil.  For example, the following recipe
exposes it:

M-x set-variable RET mouse-drag-and-drop-region RET t RET
M-< C-SPC M-f C-n C-x SPC
Drag the rectangle region with the mouse, and its shape is ignored

Hopefully we can apply the same kind of change in that function too.
