Select additional occurrences of a word in TextMate 2

Question

How can I select additional occurrences of a word in TextMate 2? I do this in Sublime Text 2/3 by pressing Ctrl+D (Windows, Linux) or Cmd+D (macOS).

Updated answer

As indicated below, ⌃W (Select Word) is the shortcut in the current build.

Taken from the release notes for r9302:

Add two new action methods:

findNextAndModifySelection:
findPreviousAndModifySelection:

These find the next/previous occurrence of what’s on the find clipboard and selects that, but preserves the existing selection. One could e.g. add this to Keybindings.dict:

"@d" = ( "copySelectionToFindPboard:", "findNextAndModifySelection:" );

This binding will likely be default in an upcoming build, but bound to ⌃W (Select Word) and scoped to dyn.selection (so only when a word is already selected).
