I agree! I keep flipping to Sublime Text to use the keyboard shortcuts for multiple selection.
For reference, here’s what Sublime Text offers:

Of these, the most important for me are:
- Add a line above or below the current cursor/selection
- Add the next occurrence of the current word to the selection
- Add all occurrences of the current word to the selection
