Definitely not urgent, and I'd even be willing to work on developing a solution with some guidance. Everything about Konsole is great for my use cases, but I've been slightly disappointed with the selection mode for copy/paste. I appreciate having some vim keybindings (hjkl), but without access to actions like w, b, e, f, etc. it's just faster to use a mouse.

I feel like this would be very easy to implement (famous last words), and I would be happy to try to do it myself. Unfortunately, I am not super experienced with large C++ codebases and can't find where the movements for the visual selection mode are implemented. Someone else fixing this would be great, but I'm also willing to contribute after getting pointed in the right direction.

Thank you!
