Um, I think the point was *not* to use the mouse. I would like to know that trick as well.
Make your selection, press and release the option modifier key once, and the selection turns into column-mode. You can keep extending the selection with shift + arrows, and it'll stay as a column selection (and allows the selection to go past newlines/inside tabs etc.).
Regarding selection, what do you think about an additional modifier (Ctrl or Shift), that selects only whole lines, regardless of the cursor position in this lines? Vim has such a feature and I use it a lot (v vs. Shift-v vs. Ctrl-v in command mode, if you want to test it).
