When double clicking "a word" it would be convenient to be able to configure a word separation chars.

For example, if I have http://localhost:8000 in Tilix I could set word-wise select chars to -,./?%&#_~: and when I double click on localhost it selects the whole URI for me to copy. Here it only selects the localhost bit.

If Tilix does it then it should be supported by VTE somehow. Probably https://gjs-docs.gnome.org/vte291~2.91/vte.terminal#method-set_word_char_exceptions

BTW, for URLs you could use "Copy Hyperlink Address" from the context menu instead.

Hyperlink was only an example, I know that in few more places I had to modify the chars list to I am able to copy paste exactly what I need :)
