(feature req) Virtual Space /Space on Demand column editing? about micro HOT 5 OPEN

The real column selection is a good feature I was missing too. Unfortunately the multi-cursor mode can't fulfill this, but definitely has different advantages.
So yes, it should be added to the TODOs, where ever they're tracked.

It could be implemented via a plugin?

Should be possible...at least in the first place.
How to decide what shall be added as an plugin and what internally or merged afterwards?

But yes, as a plugin it would be a good starter.

How to decide what shall be added as an plugin

Pretty much any non-trivial feature that can be implemented as a plugin without loss of functionality and performance?

BTW it could be merged afterwards still as a plugin (a built-in one).

I'm coming from the angle of avoiding unnecessary extra complication of the existing micro (Go) code base.

As someone who is not capable of writing a plugin, is the best course of action to just let this stay as a open feature request and hope someone with ability tackles it? (that's fine of course - just trying to figure out if there's anything I can do to help advocate, etc)
