If you mean hold Shift and move by arrow keys, then this selects text
for quite some time now.

Oh, is that default now? Good. (I can't switch because I am using my old patches which I did not have time to get into Emacs.)

And how about Ctl-arrow key? Does that move a "word"? If combined with Shift does it select?

And how about Ctrl-PgUp/PgDn?
