I look for this feature in every editor I plan to use. It's a simple mechanism which expands the capability of the editor greatly. You can run grep, or quick sed, awk or perl one-liners over your selection.
The implementation of this feature in TextMate is good (Text > Filter through command...). There is also a plugin which provides this functionality for jEdit.
