+1, even though this would displace one of point-to-register's
current bindings (though leaving it accessible via `C-x r SPC').
Furthermore, this would make the new command discoverable with
`C-x r C-h', which would go a long way toward Stefan's stated goal
of providing visual access to the existing rectangle functionality.
