<br>So, I agree that using Quick Look wouldn't work for you.
<br>I have to say when I tried Sublime Text I found the behaviour you're looking for rather annoying - but of course, that's probably just because I wasn't used to it.
<br>
<br>And I still don't see why this is superior to open an file in a tab, copying the parts you need and then pressing command + w to close the tab again.
<br>I wanted to suggest that you might want to record a macro which is doing "copy, then close tab" and bind this macro to a keystroke, but then I saw that TextMate obviously doesn't include "close tab" in the macro recording.
<br>
<br>I'd probably turn off this feature if it was introduced in TextMate.
<br>But I wouldn't mind if it would be added as long as it _can_ be turned off (as you suggested in the first place).
