1. This is a feature request. By definition, this puts it at the very bottom of
my priority list. There is no guarantee that requested features will be
implemented, ever.
2. Implementing the feature requires completely redesigning how Kompare works.
It currently uses a list view, which means it's impossible to select across
multiple lines. It would probably be possible to allow selecting stuff within a
line (but even that would be a lot of work since the text is custom drawn, it's
not a standard list view where you can just enable the "edit on 2 clicks"), but
this is probably not what you want. This makes it even more unlikely the
feature will be implemented, ever.

I am fixing bugs in it, or at least trying to, but I could indeed use help,
especially when it comes to implementing feature. I have basically no time to
add any features at all.
