There is SetSelectionMode but I don't think it does quite what you want.

it isnt yet implemented in my STC.pm but so far i see in http://scintilla.sourceforge.net/ScintillaDoc.html#SCI_SETSELECTIONMODE
 it should make it possible to make some rect selection with the
mouse without to have to touch the keyboard. another feature
suggestion: i saw on a commercial new mac editor a cool feature that
became practical if you handle a lot with blocks of similar looking
code like when you code GUI stuff. in the demo they selected 5 lines
in a column and hat 5 cursors above each other so they could type in
the same code in 5 lines at the same time. are impressed ? :) :)

It seems another editor has this feature as somebody else asked for it a long time ago. I believe it would be hard to implement in the current state of Scintilla (but I can be wrong), and beside, I think you can do something similar with a (regex?) replace in selection. Not interactive nor spectacular, but probably as efficient.
