Opt+Click in different places for multi-editing (multi-cursor)

This is a feature that VSCode has that allows us to code multiple things by just Opt+Click multiple places and whatever we do, it affects all of them such as delete, add text, etc. I found myself more than once wishing this could be done in NotePlan. It saves a lot of time and for developers who use NotePlan, maybe they would like that as well?

Multiple cursors is the best invention of Sublime Text. So I would upvote that just because it makes dealing with text easier. But what are real-world use-cases for that in a context of NotePlan? It is not a code editor (although code fencing feature could be some kind of a counter argument)), and I cannot yet imagine dealing with simple text using multiple selection. If you mean selecting multiple tasks to perform some actions over them (schedule / complete / cancel), I think NotePlan already has that, although it is only for a single selection.

Upvote from my side. Just for convenience, it would be highly desirable to have multi-cursor. I also encountered some situations, where multi-cursor would've really save me some time: - I have tasks, that have a similar description. Multi-cursor would allow to easily write the part that is identical. This could be done with copy paste, but e.g. reformatting the list of tasks is much easier with multi-cursor - similar reasoning for tables with similar data
