Apps Eclipse - Ctrl+Arrow text selection

K24A3

Newbie
In Eclipse, when you hold the Ctrl key and press the Left or Right arrow to highlight variables/text, the selection stops at Upper Case characters.

For example with:
myLongVariable

The cursor is initially at the start.
Press Ctrl+Right and it will highlight "my".
Press Ctrl+Right again and it with highlight "myLong"
Press Ctrl+Right again and it with highlight "myLongVariable"

This feature is more of a pain than being useful.
How do you change it so Ctrl+Right highlights the complete word like in other editors?

I know you can use Alt+Shift+Arrow but I find it awkward.
