It would be great to have the ability to create multiple carets, select 
multiple pieces, or progressively clone a selection of a word to the next 
identical match creating multiple selections, not necessarily square, and then 
be able to type, delete, replace, etc. using the multiple carets until Esc is 
hit, pasting into all carets with Ctrl-V, and so on.

Here's an animated demonstration of these features: https://www.sublimetext.com/

This is Sublime Text's killer feature, and this would put Geany closer to one 
of the most reputed, feature rich commercial multiplatform editors, while still 
being free software. I believe there's support for this in Scintilla, at least 
to some extent.

This supersets #850.
