Since I don't use Xcode, what does this feature do? (I got a picture of 
how it works in my mind ... but my idea is just silly)

Hey Jan,

Been a while...  :)

BBEdit will do this after a fashion.

Make a vertical selection and then type something.

Unfortunately the feature does not handle discontiguous selections, so its 
utility is limited (for now).

I do think it foreshadows things to come though.

Combining Windows

[Scott in Pollock]

Is there a one step method for combining open windows. Seems like there 
should be but the only way I can find is to:

View sidebar in each open window (one step for each window); drag documents 
from sidebar of other windows to a single window (one step for each window 
- 1). Total steps for 4 open documents... 7!

OR

View sidebar in one of the open windows, drag proxy icon of each of the 
other open windows into the sidebar of the window with the sidebar (one 
step for each window -1), then select and close window for each document 
moved to the window with the sidebar (two steps for each moved document). 
Total steps for 4 open documents... 10!!

I suppose it would also be nice to have a single step method for expanding 
all open documents in a single window into individual windows (which also 
currently seems to require multiple steps

Am I missing something, or are there no more convenient ways to do these 
things.
