Again, ideally this functionality would be independent of the org-agenda
files used by org-refile, so as to avoid displaying irrelevant headings as
possible targets.

Currently this is doable by doing:
1. select text
2. cut
3. other-window
4. navigate to desired target heading
5. paste text
6. other window

The proposed new function would make this much more efficient:
1. select text
2. org-refile-region
3. choose target

The most useful form of this would allow you to choose a target from among
any currently open documents. My use case involves selecting text from one
buffer and refiling it from among org-headings in another buffer, i.e.
moving text from a source document displayed in one window and refiling to
targets within the hierarchy of a target document displayed in another
window, like so:

Does anyone have ideas for how to implement?
