hmm… I sent you a private reply not so long ago which amongst others  
said (the first one should allow for grabbing “current paragraph”):

     As for input choice, I would like to allow for a search
     back/forward regexp to denote what should be the input, I think
     this would be extremely flexible.

     As for the current scope as input: the problem is that e.g. for a
     string, we markup escape sequences (and sometimes
     printf-sequences), for URLs we may do similar down the read (e.g.
     URL-quoted characters, markup the username/password part etc.),
     which means if the caret is on one of these sub-parts, the
     TM_SCOPE_TEXT would be wrong (as it would only be the escaped
     character or similar).
