Of course, there is an ambiguity whether you want the closing quote or
the opening parenthesis...
And there is an arbitrary precedence rule.
IMO, a modifier key might help to disambiguate...
It would also be a nice thing to have a keyboard combination producing
the same effect,
For example:
- Escape left_arrow selects downto the left opening,
- Escape right_arrow selects upto the right closing...
Unless of course there's already a shortcut I'm not aware of...
