in the process of doing this same thing a lot more times than i originally expected i have stumbled upon a particularly effective and efficient way of doing what it is i set out to do: use the Fuzzy Select tool with Antialiasing checked, Threshold at 25 and Select by: Hue.
one good selection -- click and drag right and/or down -- and the area to delete is usually selected perfectly (or very close to) in one go.
give it a quick scan to make sure all is good -- it usually is -- then hit the Delete key and voila! all done in a couple seconds.
i realize this unusually high rate of success is likely due to my particular circumstances but hey, worked for me.
