Hi,
You can find the matching bracket with <Shift-F2>. But you can't easily select all the text between these brackets!

But this is very useful for moving around all the code contained by these brackets.

Another useful feature for this is to "see" (by the select block) the code of a very long code block. If you scroll rather fast you could easily oversee just the balanced bracket, but you couldn't oversee the end of a select block...

What do you think?

I have set up the shortcuts in a way this is easy to get:

F5 = Mark block start
F6 = Find matching bracket
F7 = Mark block end

So, I place the caret in front of the opening bracket '|{', and just press F5, F6, F7 in sequence.

If it is that useful, what if we just make selection with Shift-F2?

The selection made by <Shift-F2> would be very useful. Exactly that I was hoping for!
