Description
I started to use multi-selection in Eclipse IDE.
I am facing a little problem in Java Editor. I first posted this issue [here](https://github.com/eclipse-platform/eclipse.platform.text/issues/102) but it seems it's not related to text editor nor generic editor.
If I select multiples lines with Multi caret down. Then if I use Shift+End, it's select in each line from my cursor to the end of the line. This is great. But if I use Ctrl+Shift+Right it only select a word on the first line and text editor is not on multi-selection anymore.
I don't know how the selection should work exactly. I think about 2 options.
- select just one word and select only the first part of a java attribute in case of camel case name
- select to the next separator (space, semi-colum, ...)
If you have other suggestions, feel free to provide.
