In many apps, you can hold down the option key to change the cursor into a crosshair, and do a vertical selection. In addition, in apps like Pages, you can hold down the command key to do a non- contiguous selection. I'd imagine that both of these scenarios might result in that method getting invoked.

That explains how to get a non-continuous selection but not how you can change the text in multiple locations.

Let's say you have a non-continuous selection and you type or paste some text, it just delete the selection and insert the new text in the first selection range (tested in TextEdit).
