This is great and I quite enjoy it. I would love the ability to create multiple cursors from a selection (within a block of course). Intelij (and others) have a hotkey like Ctrl+G to add another cursor at the next instance of a word and Ctrl+Cmd+G to select all instances of a word. That's something I do in IDEA's scratch pads constantly but I'd like an ever-running note of what I'm doing divided into blocks.

Also it would be awesome to have some metadata on each block that is toggle-able (or just inserts as text) so I can have the current date/time added or shown.

Ctrl-D (CMD-D on Mac) does this (currently not limited to the current block though, but that is something I'd like to change).

Yeah, I've been thinking of adding timestamp (of last edit) as metadata for each block
