I see the same behavior, but I think there are two things happening:
1. Selecting a line by clicking in the left margin is an option
under Preferences -> Editing: General -> Allow single-click line
selection. I don't find anything in the docs about using the
Option key with this.
2. Clicking the left margin with the Option key down causes
BBEdit to search for the next identical line. This is
independent of whether single-click line selection is enabled.
If there is no identical line, the wrap-around search symbol
flashes, and the selection doesn't go anywhere. So far I haven't
found anything in the docs about this Jump to Next Identical
Line capability, but I can see how it would be very handy.
