Right now, it isn't possible to rectangle-select several regions in the timeline when there isn't any empty space at least around the first region to be selected. In this situation, one can only click inside the region, but the region will move when dragging, forcing one to shift-select each contiguous region individually instead. This can be tedious when selecting many regions. A dedicated timeline rect-select tool, equivalent to the desktop one, that could be quickly activated with a keyboard shortcut, would solve the problem.

I think adding this would be trivial. Maybe only a few timeline keyboard shortcuts would have to be reassigned.
