I don't think it's a particularly important bug to fix -- like you, I
think that the number of users here is pretty small. (To say the
least.)
But I'm not sure whether this is something that should be documented,
either -- it looks like a bug to me, so just leaving it open until
somebody feels like fixing it is an option.
As for how, I don't know. Perhaps marking regions as skippable somehow
would be an option? That is, when doing rectangles, mark all the text
outside of the rectangle as skippable (temporarily). I seem to remember
there being some discussion about this in general for the searching
functions...
