Since the operation mode of 'gimp-rect-select' is
CHANNEL-OP-INTERSECT, the resulting selection is only the
non-transparent part of all chars that lie within the region of that
cell (i.e., the non-transparent part of a single char).
This is the opposite order of what you may have been expecting -- that
is, to select a cell and THEN select the non-transparent part of the
cell -- but the net result is the same! It was simpler to do it my way
because the "Alpha To Selection" function
('gimp-selection-layer-alpha') does not allow for CHANNEL-OP modes.
