No, I haven't been looking into any major overhauls of parts of
nano, just into small tiny changes and bug fixes.

Well, the current code in nano does detect Shift+Arrow and Ctrl+Arrow
on several terminals, it just doesn't do anything with it, it simply
reduces them to plain Arrow keys.

Yes, also Chris remarked a little while back that having Shift+Arrow
available for selecting text would be nice.  But it is major addition
and thus not something I will be looking at for quite a while.
