getregion() versus selection.vim

[Konfekt]

In view of help getregion() on recent Vim, is the dependency on https://github.com/arecarn/selection.vim on those dispensable?
There's the CursorMoved event to check for a selection mode that is not linewise if vim-crunch is fired by a command, but likely vim-crunch is used by mappings?

See also vim/vim#15327 regarding a check in command-line whether the last selection was line-wise or not.
