Is it possible for this package to retain the original behavior of invisible regions?

For example, end-of-buffer sets the mark so that by simply pressing kill-ring-save or yank afterwards, you can copy or delete content between the mark and the point without highlighting any region. In this scenario, whole-line-or-region will yank/kill the current line since it does not recognize invisible regions. Is it possible to make whole-line-or-region aware of invisible regions?
Are you talking about when transient-mark-mode is off? With it enabled (the default) then there isn't really an invisible region afaik. And with it disabled, I believe there's always a region active, so this package would never select the whole line. Or am I missing something?
When transient-mark-mode is enabled without the whole-line-or-region package installed, executing M-> sets a mark and moves the point to the end of the buffer, without highlighting any region. However, performing a yank or kill command after this action applies to the entire area covered by the movement, despite no visible highlight.
Conversely, with whole-line-or-region enabled, performing a yank or kill after using M-> affects only the line where the point is currently located, not the entire area covered by the M-> command.
I'm curious if there's a way to maintain the default behavior for commands that set a mark and then jump, when yank or kill commands are subsequently used.
