Version: (using KDE 4.2.4) Installed from: Ubuntu Packages When typing a lot into the terminal, it takes a long time to scroll to the middle by holding an arrow key. If possible, it would be nice to be able to mouse click (while holding down a hotkey) where I want to cursor to move to, even if the implementation is somewhat of a hack, and not guaranteed to always work.

Konsole is not responsible for positioning the cursor - that is done by the program reading the input, typically a shell such as bash. The input line is typically read by a library called readline which has a bunch of shortcuts for moving the cursor and manipulating the text. For example Ctrl+Left/Right arrow moves the cursor one word to the left or right. Home/End move to the start or end of the line. A limited set of these work in normal text input fields in most applications as well.
