Description

Just a quick question in order to optimize my workflow / productivity with Sublime Text 3 & Emmet...

So far I am able to (on Mac)

select the opening and closing tag via CMD + Shift + K

select the nested HTML / text of a wrapping attribute via CMD + Shift + A

But what I haven't found out yet is a way to select the opening and closing tag completely (with all possible values) in order to delete the surrounding tags.

To illustrate...

<span style="color: #660066;"><strong>Lorem ipsum dolor sit amed</strong></span>

...which doesn't allow me to instantly delete the code.

Any ideas / hints / workarounds you can think of? I researched both the web and the Sublime Text docs but to no avail...

Thanks & regards!

The emmet documentation (https://docs.emmet.io/actions/remove-tag/) has this as the remove tag shortcut, but states the shortcut is CTRL + SHIFT + K, when infact, it's CTRL + SHIFT + ; in Sublime Text 3.
