True enough, Insert as Snippet seems to work more like a regular  
paste than a column paste. But...

If you already have a column of text selected, can't you just hit the  
key you want a bunch of times and get that character inserted in  
every column? Seems like less effort to do that than try to remember  
the Key Equivalent for a special command. Your keyboard's auto-repeat  
reduces the effort even more.
