alt-shit-arrows to select text blocks or write over multiple lines
In Visual Studio you can select "blocks" of text using the arrow keys while holding down both the ALT and SHIFT keys. This is really useful and I hope it gets implemented

I have actually tried it (v4.47.02). The selection step works, but typing or pasting deletes the selected items and replaces only the first line. Is there something else that the user needs to do?

You're assuming this doesn't work in LINQPad? Have you actually tried it? You might be surprised.
