support for multiline suggestions where one or more of the lines were deleted

I tried this, but it seems like adding suggestions when one of the lines is deleted is not supported?

When you have a suggestion for multiple lines, those lines will very often include deleted lines, since all changed lines show up as a pair of deleted and added, so this severely limits the usefulness of multiline suggestions.

Any follow up on this? Since a PR is commonly going to have deleted lines, the suggestion feature, whilst convenient & awesome, cannot be used for many PRs.

All changed code does not support multi-line commenting. Even when adding in something as simple as a tab or space to better format previous code, GIT picks this up as a deleted and added line even though compare tools can tell it's minor.

So Unless you are writing brand new code, multi-line commenting is not going to work for you.
