More than just multi-cursor the workflows VSCode offers with them (selecting all occurrences, selecting the next occurrence) are vital for my work.

Aren't those workflows operated by LSP Rename action rather than multi cursor ? Since Ecode supports LSP, if you only need to rename things, you should be good without multi cursor.
LSP only applies to programming languages and specific configuration files, it's useless when you edit files such as JSON/YAML/etc.
indeed. LSP are for high latency, high impact, careful changes. multicursor edits (with sublime for me) are for those "replace all the str_something with string_something in the next 3 lines, quick"
There are LSP servers for YAML (and by extension JSON)
