Multi-occur has kept me with emacs. Exactly what's wanted when making coordinated edits to multiple file formats, e.g. a project that involves JS, Go, Markdown. After some setup hassle, 'M-x mo <regexp>' or similar searches all open buffers, and presents matches in a new temporary buffer. Typing 'e' in that buffer makes it writable. The usual editing commands then simultaneously modify both the temporary multi-occur buffer, and the originals.
