Is there a shortcut for selecting a word under cursor in Gedit?

Pretty much what the title says. I know this can be done in the likes of SublimeText but was wondering if it was also possible in Gedit. Currently I'm using:

Ctrl+Shift+Arrows

To select things but this hardly seems optimal.

Found a way that works with Gedit 3.10.3! I have installed Gmate's collection of plugins.

One of them, called "Line Tools Plugin" has a shorcut for selecting words (Ctrl+M).
