Feature update suggestion—Window region enhancements

• Dynamically update window region coordinates in hover mode in the Find Window Dialog

In the Find Window Dialog, when both the Hover and ...etc. specified area options are selected, it would be nifty to be able to use that hover functionality to also specify the relevant coordinates. I was thinking maybe something along these lines:

—any checked coordinate auto-updates to that relative position on the detected window until locked (possibly with a lock key other than \[CAPS LOCK\] if you think a separate key is warranted). Unchecked boxes remain unchanged; so you could set them e.g. one by one, or top-left then bottom-right. Optionally, you could perhaps add a feature where if you checked 4 (or for some cursed reason, 3?) the user could hold the lock key, then click-and-drag a box to set all checked coordinates (this would obviously need to be explained in a label or whatever)

...And when Hover is disabled, so too would these checkboxes be:
(depicted: whether / not ...etc. specified area is unchecked as well.)

Feature update suggestion—Window region enhancements

• Show visual feedback for window subregion

Somewhat associated with the above request—but not exclusively—is another QOL enhancement for the overall Window Regions function of the Find Window dialog: it would be nice if, when any subregion smaller than the full window is defined using the various options (either coordinates or quadrants), you actually get visual feedback of the defined area, à la:

or perhaps the inverse (showing everything unselected) might make more sense from a design standpoint ???
