Well, if I got it right, Brent wants to modify the structure of the
entire song, like e.g. moving the chorus section that now comes after
3rd verse to become after 1st verse already. This section may or may not
include independent regions.
Brent: "[..] take a section out of a whole timeline, across all tracks,
and move it somewhere else [...] I'm working on one of those songs where
all the ideas came together, but
in the wrong order. I've got a section about three-fourths of the way
into it that really should have been the beginning..."
In this case, I really think that selecting all regions, splitting them
(hit S) at start and end points of the to-be-moved section and dragging
these splitted regions all at once to desired location is what has to be
done. Of course, before this, an empty space of similar length has to be
created in the desired location in a similar manner. After moving the
regions to the desired place, the "tail" of the song has to be also
selected and dragged back to correct location. Easy?! :)

If you're just trying to cut a project in two:
1) Put a marker in for your chop point, save, and close the project.
2) "cp -a" the original project directory to a new directory.
3) Open the new directory, and delete everything on one side of the marker. Just select
it, and delete, easy. Save. Close the project.
4) In the old project, delete everything on the other side of the marker. Save.
You now have two projects, one of which is "up to such-and-such point", and the
other is "after such-and-such point".

Sounds pretty complicated to me. Why not:
Zoom to whole project.
Select all regions
left-click hold them and drag them to the right
select all regions that should be moved to the start
left-click hold them and drag them to the left
repeat until all pieces are in place...
I did this some 10-12 times, it is perfectly safe. You need to make
sure, that you really select everything so unhide hidden tracks that
hold any regions before. The only problem is, that you loose automations
for these are bound to the time-line and not to a region....

Can you select the regions, duplicate/copy, drag to the new start
point, then cut the old parts out of the mix and readjust the following
material to the new start point? I think this will work across multiple
tracks.
Hi, that should work indeed. I've done it by moving playhead to the
starting point of the to-be-moved section of the song, hitting Ctrl+A,
then hitting S ....
