<p>When typing in a rectangular selection (ie on a vertical column of lines) hits the break column the last line is broken and the vertical selection is destroyed so further typing only happens on that last line.</p>
<p>Until Geany supports discontiguous multiple selections its not possible to continue the multiple typing if all lines are wrapped, so probably best for line breaking to check for multiple selections and not do the break so the users typing continues on all the lines, then they can break manually.</p>
