Hello all,
I haven't used the command vo+shift+c to do this task.
What I do, and it works in most of the cases:
I switch from dom-mode (used by default) to group-mode when I want to select 
text on a webpage.
To do this switch quickly, I have assigned a keystroke in the 
keyboard-commander.
When I am in group-mode, It seems to be much more easy to select text on a 
webpage with shift+down-arrow (also or only if quicknav is on).

Hope this helps,

best regards,
William Windels
