Noncontiguous and rectangular selections are supported by NSTextView, but not by WebView. (Mail composition uses an editable WebView.)

Also, I believe both of these are optional features in NSTextView that can be enabled/disabled per instance. I’ve definitely run into text views in apps that don’t support them; it seems as though NSTextField’s field editor doesn’t by default.

Also, FYI, both TextMate and SublimeText have more powerful implementations of rectangular selection. For instance, you can select a rectangular area, and then when you type replacement text it gets repeated on each line. This is super useful for things like changing the common prefix of a list of enum constant declarations, for example.
