This is rather similar to what I proposed in anohter message (the 
post-post-command hook), but I would prefer a more general hook. BTW is 
there a way to check if the last command was indeed a move in the 
current buffer?

And, for the turn on of the region a pre-pre-command hook could be used.

Is not that too late?
