So...is it a faux pas to thank the editor for their consideration? On my last submission, the editor gave me some outstanding feedback with the rejection, so I thanked him. Or am I intruding on their limited time?

If you feel the editor went out of their way to give you specific comments that you found helpful, then no I don't believe that it's a faux pas. But generally the etiquette is not to respond to rejections.
