I often select words on a page in order to e.g. right-click and search for the
word with using a search engine. It would be great if I could press e.g. the Alt
key and the selection would automatically snap-select the whole word(s) even
though I only select a few letters from the word(s).
If I doubleclick on a word it snap-selects the whole word, but as soon as I move
the cursor, the snap effect is deactivated. Maybe the snap effect should stay
activated
Reproducible: Always

Press F7, that will turn caret-browsing on : you'll see a cursor inside the
webpage. Then you can select words with the arrows keys. To select a word, use
ctrl-left/right (option-left/right on Mac).

Press the shift key, then the extension will be extended.
