visual distraction of selections slowing down editing
This is going to be a dealbreaker because having things moving around in one's peripheral vision is extremely distracting for a lot of people, including me. When I am typing I want my focus to be on the one place where I'm inserting text. I don't want to see all these other cursors moving around.
But that's no worse than the experience of a global search/replace in vim
I rarely ever use the default global search/replace in vim. Most of the time I search with / and then perform an edit there, and then use n.n.n.nn.nnn. to repeat the changes in the places I want.
