oh, i assumed it had been there for a long time. i just never
use selections (to the extent i should really unbind 'q', because
i hit it by accident fairly often), so probably wasn't paying attention.
I mainly use them as a nice select/yank feature. Occasionally someone
digs into the rectangular selections, and I get to either explain the
behavior, or fix a problem...
(this also means i don't have a vested interested in the default
binding of the "get out of selection mode" keystroke. :-)
yes... it seems to me that while mode-specific bindings fix some issues,
they have a problem that they're not easily visible to the user, for
diagnosing problems.
