Problem / Steps to reproduce

I've read through this: https://junegunn.github.io/fzf/tips/processing-multi-line-items/

Say I have a multi line command and try to fuzzy with fzf, on multi line candidate in the list I want to have a different cursor/pointer icon rather than use current with --pointer.

The reason we have --marker-multi-line is to make it possible to visually separate consecutive selected entries. The pointer doesn't have this problem, so I didn't add the option. It wouldn't hurt to have the option, but I doubt many would need it.
