if this is something we want

As I said several times over the years on #1141 so long as it is confirmed that no Geany or core plugin or GP plugin functionality breaks it can be introduced in stages, basic Scintilla provided capability, then expand Geany and plugin functionality that can sensibly apply to multiple selections to do so over time.

But I have to point out Ctrl+click is the multiple caret shortcut in Vscode on Linux not alt+click, maybe thats a Mac thing, and Scite is also Ctrl+click1.

So maybe click for one selection, Ctrl+click for multiple selections (after first), and Ctrl+shift+click for rectangular selection, all nice and consistent and in agreement with at least a couple of other apps, and no Scintilla patch needed.

Footnotes

  1. not a wide sample I agree, but its all I have on this machine, and I wonder where I got the idea it was alt+click?
