The current "Select Rectangular Area" and "Edit Multiple Points" works well for a few lines of text. However, dozens or hundreds of lines, it is slow and tedious.
Other editors allow a single key combination to insert a cursor at the same column on each selected row. For example, Visual Studio Code has "Add Cursors to Line Ends ⌥⇧I".
Describe the solution you'd like
Add A keyboard shortcut and menu item to add multiple insertion points to an entire selection at once.

Humm, this year, CotEditor changed the implementation to hold multiple insertion points to support the new insertion point feature on macOS 14. Due to it, I can imagine it is now hard to have a large number of insertion points. However, I suppose, there is no way to detour it. Sorry.
I personally recommend to utilize regex to insert the same text at a bunch of points at once.

Could you elaborate a bit more on your request?
Is the “Add Cursors to Line Ends” command fulfill it straightforwardly?
By the way, CotEditor accepts the most of emacs key bindings.
In addition, CotEditor has a command to add an insertion point above/below the current one by pressing Control-Shift-↓/↑ keys? Does it work for you?
