(I find the need to do it quite often.)

Hi Jeff,
probably you will find useful to use the "Merge Selected Features" 
editing tool available in the "Advanced Digitizing" toolbar or the 
"Edit" menu:
https://docs.qgis.org/3.16/en/docs/user_manual/working_with_vector/editing_geometry_attributes.html#merge-selected-features

Best regards.

Andrea
