Navigation and Selection in the Editor

There are two features of navigation and selection in the Homesite editor that I really like, and I cannot find them in ColdFusion Builder.

Feature 1 - moving from the start tag to the end tag using CTRL-M.  This works in Homesite regardless of the kind of tag.  The tag can be HTML such at <table> or CFML such as <CFIF>.  If your text cursor is anywhere in the start tag and your press CTRL-M, the text cursor moves to the end tag.  Similarly, if your text cursor is in the end tag and you press CTRL-M, the cursor moves to the start tag.

Feature 2 - selecting an entire block of text between the start and end tag, inclusive.  I may not have the standard key combination for this, but if my text cursor is in a start tag, and I press SHIFT-CTRL-T, all of the characters between the start tag and the end tag, inclusive, are selected.

Is it possible to do the same kind of things in ColdFusion Builder, and I just have not stumbled across it?

Neither of these are implemented.  An issue has been raised in the bug base to cover the functionality... it might be worth voting for it:
