Is your feature request related to a problem? Please describe.
Sometimes, there's a number of files within a specific directory I know I'm going to be working on regularly. Recently, for example, I was working on a Unity project where I wanted to add documentation to various source files belonging to the same module; I wanted to open them all at once, then use my personal next buffer shortcut to quickly work through them. However, Neotree only supports opening one file at once.
On top of this, I use a floating Neotree buffer, rather than a side panel; while I could disable autofocus, this would (to my understanding) require that I have some separate shortcut for opening the floating neotree buffer that disables autofocus, whereas I would much rather be able to use the same one with this functionality.
Describe the solution you'd like.
Quite simple: similar to how you can visual-line select to copy, paste, and delete files, I would like for there to be a way to use visual-line select to open multiple files, wherein (say) only the first would be focused. Really, the focus isn't an immediate issue; it's simply the idea of mass-adding multiple files to open buffers to be worked on regularly.
Describe alternatives you've considered.
If there were some way to quickly disable file focusing while already in a neotree buffer instance, such that I could also match that to shortcut/keymap, that might be good. That is, I currently have <leader>nf mapped to open a floating neotree buffer, and then within it, if I could somehow do <leader>da or something to disable auto-focus in a way that would automatically re-enable it on close, then this could be viable for my suggested workflow.
