title: Atom Editor - multiple selections to rename variables quickly doesn't recognize scope
body: <p>Sublime text has a feature that allows you to highlight multiple identical selections to rename variables quickly. It is initiated with <kbd>Ctrl</kbd>+<kbd>D</kbd> on your keyboard. Most importantly it <em>is</em> context aware. If I want to rename the variable <code>is</code> to <code>xy</code>, it won't, for instance, rename <code>this</code> to <code>thxy</code>.</p>
  
  <p>How do I get Atom to recognize scope? If I <kbd>Ctrl</kbd>+<kbd>D</kbd> the same as in Sublime it does not differentiate between is and th<strong>is</strong>.</p>
  
  <p>Highlight the first two letters in this code chunk below (ie 'is') and press <kbd>Ctrl</kbd>+<kbd>D</kbd>. It's jumps to the 'is' in th<strong>is</strong>.</p>
  
  <pre><code>is
