[Feature] Text selection

[SebiderSushi]

The space bar can already be used to control the cursor. It would be a very nice addition if that functionality could be expanded to select text as the cursor moves. For example, while the shift key is held down, coursor movement could be interpreted as text selection.

Another possible implementation for text selection could be to do it by the same scheme of the backspace swipe.

Since this collides with existing functions, it might be best to add an option if implementing this. Using the option one could alternate between A) Shift swipe for capital letters & backspace swipe for deletion (current behavior) B) Text selection only by swiping either from the shift or backspace key, no deletions or capital letters

Thanks for the suggestion, I think it's a great idea!
