Assuming that you mean "does have", that's actually not what I have in
mind. For emacs lisp, the closest would be a command sending a region
to a IELM buffer and evaluating it. It is not the same as M-:, for
instance when it comes to acting on the selected buffer.

My terminology might be inexact. I'm thinking of the interactive
interfaces of software like Python, R, Caml, Shell...
My point is that currently there is no way of binding C-c C-e, C-c C-r
or whatever to "send this region to the process-interaction buffer".
