Here an example of Python code:

class MyClass:

    def method(self):
        value = [{"key 1": "value 1"}, {...}]
        return value

For instance if the cursor placed on the "y" of "key 1", iteratively pressing shift+alt+right arrow should iteratively select:

the content of the string "key 1",
the content of the dict (between { and }),
the full dict expression ({ and } included),
the content of the list (between [ and ]),
the full list expression ([ and ] included),
the value local variable assignment statement (without the indentation spaces),
the line with the value local variable assignment statement,
all the lines in the body of the method,
all the lines of the method, "def" declaration included,
all the lines of the body class,
all the lines of the class, class declaration included,
the full file.

At the moment, the smart select behavior works as expected for some of those steps but not all of them, in particular it does not understand the structure of Python strings, Python functions and classes.
