Use Ctrl+Click to Select Word in VS Code

Question

In Visual Studio, if you hold CTRL and click on word, it selects the entire word. If you drag, it selects text word-by-word.

I find this feature of Visual Studio very useful when I'm copy pasting small bits of code, since I can just keep holding CTRL, select words, and press C, X, or V to move stuff around.

In VS Code, you can't do this. Instead, CTRL+CLICK is bound to "Go To Definition".

Is there any way to match the behavior of VS Code with Visual Studio in this context?

As @phuzi said in the comments you can use double click to select the word or double click and drag to select word to word (it will snap on the last character of each word). If you triple-click on a line or click on line num, it will select the whole line (with the invisible character at last '\n').
If you press CTRL + D it will select the word where the cursor is. Also if there are multiple instance of same word you can select them all one after another using CTRL + D.
