This could be an obscure feature, but I think I'd make frequent use of it.

Use case:

I just typed some rough draft and I'm ready to start formatting. I want to convert quite a few pieces of text to a heading level 2. Right now I have to select each block in turn, and convert it. It would be really cool if I could just ctrl/cmd+click all the blocks I want to convert, and get an option to set them as headings. This wouldn't be unlike sublime multi select for Gutenberg. :)

We'd still need to iterate a bit on mobile selection, but I'd see it work a bit like the iOS photos app.

This is low priority stuff, but wanted to file an issue before I forget about it.

#3584 for the non-contiguous selection aspect
#3535 is somewhat related, as both entail multi-block actions

For now closing as this isn't something going to get done in version one. Perhaps it could be later versions but let's focus on other aspects now and close - we can always reopen anything.
