Multiple selections was already included in Leo until a few days ago when it
was disabled in favor of DnD, prior to Ville's first commit on that it was
possible to drag-select multiple nodes. The issues you raise are valid, of
course, and have been explored in the context of the contextmenu.py delete
command, which is multi-select sensitive.
Multi-select isn't very important when editing code, but for organizing
data/concepts/tokens it can be very useful. In the outline below, how would
you most easily rearrange the fruit?
