   Good idea.  I just added this.

The docstring already mentioned in the first paragraph that enabling
CUA mode does enable Transient mark mode.  I believe that the
potential confusion that remains is that people might think that if
they do not like this, they can override this aspect of CUA mode by
turning off Transient Mark mode back again after enabling CUA mode.
That was apparently what Juanma expected.  So I believe that the
following might be clearer:

*** cua-base.el 01 Feb 2006 08:00:14 -0600      1.66
--- cua-base.el 01 Feb 2006 19:58:57 -0600
