Insert-mode selections do not work
See original GitHub issueWhat did you do?
Select some text while in insert mode, for example with the mouse or Shift+arrow.
Then type something that operates on the text (that works in vanilla VS Code) for example ( to surround with parentheses.
What did you expect to happen?
I expected the editor to go into some sort of Insert-mode selection, more similar to regular VS Code selection that Vim modes, where I could type into the selection to replace it, or type (, [, {, ', ", backtick, etc. to surround the selection with pairs of characters.
What happened instead?
The editor went straight into Vim visual mode, where those keys don’t do anything.
