For multiple line select, don't include word wrapped lines

#1

I am editing a list of long lines at once, so I use the multi-cursor (I don’t know what the exact term is, the one when you press shift+ctrl) to do edits.

Problem is, sometime a line will wrap around. It is not on it’s own line, but the multi-cursor selects that line. Please don’t (or offer an option to) not select the word-wrapped portion of that line.

I suppose I could fix this by disabling word wrap alternatively.

Another possible workaround: use a standard left-mouse drag or shift+arrows to make a single selection of the lines you want to edit, then press ctrl+shift+l. This should give you one selection per actual line rather than one selection per wrapped line.
