In the text output of the integrated terminal, it would be stellar if text selection could be repeated/highlighted like it does in the code editor. Like when you select text, the same string shows up as highlighted across the document.

The same behavior is extremely useful for the terminal. My example: I have this URL in the output, and more URLs of same kind show up, too. Selecting it (with duplicates highlighted) would be the fastest and most intuitive way to check if the other URLs are identical or not. Sometime I actually copy/paste the output into an editor to check. Kind of lame.

Thank you.
