Block Indentation

This is a feature i've been missing for a while. I finally decided to post about it. I like how in some editors you can select a few lines of text and press command-] or [ to indent or de-indent them. It's really useful for when you have a long for loop and then you nest it inside an if and saves you for having to tab each line individually.

I very strongly agree to this one.
Furthermore the undo is a pain, undoing ever letter you typed instead of using " " as a "split-sign".
These two are imo the biggest flaws of the editor - but then again - you can use Eclipse if you really dont like it, or any other editor...

True, maybe as we outgrow the P5 interface we should be switching to an ide like eclipse or something. Problem is, I still haven't found an ide i like as much as P5.
