You've solved your problem, but there's also this
tip/plugin which seems to do something similar.

http://vim.wikia.com/wiki/VimTip1572

It highlights arbitrary Visual and Visual Line selections, it
doesn't pick up Visual Block selections but it can do
blocks using this sort of command.

:Highlight 1 \%>8c\%<21c\%>5l\%<14l.
