Is there a way to visually highlight multiple non-adjacent lines at

For example, highlight lines 1, 4, 7, but no other lines.
Do you want to use ctrl-v, v, or V? With those, the answer is:
(drumroll, please) ... No.
However, if you're talking about :set hls, then
/\%1l\|\%4l\|\%7l
will do the job.

Also, to apply some ex-command (including ":execute" and ":normal",
q.v.) to some set of disconnected lines defined by a search pattern, see
":help :g" (without the quotes of course).
