I have a question about this part: why do you not delete the overlay when
transient-mark-mode is active?

As for the extra argument handle-terminating-event, I'd call it
"do-mouse-drag-region-post-process" and I wouldn't document what it
does, but just say that it should only be used by mouse-drag-region.
