I don't use them because if I want to change text in multiple places, you can highlight the lines where you want to change it, for example the current line to line 57 would be: V57G.
Then to change `foo` to `bar` type: :s/foo/bar/g and the replacements will take place within the selected range. If you only want to change some of them add a c on the end of the command.
Column selections: `ctrl-v`.
I'm not sure what kind of live feedback you mean, but Vim gives multiple forms of feedback, depending on what plugins are installed.
