When you have "Line Numbers" visible, you can click on that line number to 
select the content on that entire line.
However, when you do this currently, it ends up selecting that entire line, but 
then it places the cursor on the next as well as the line highlight color if 
your theme has a color set for this.
There is probably a reason for this but to me it just seems a little visually 
confusing.

Suggesting maybe can add a setting to allow the cursor to end up at the end of 
that line numbers content, rather than placing the cursor on the following line.

You can also drag your left mouse button on multiple line numbers down to 
select multiple lines, which does the same where it moves the cursor to the 
next line number not clicked on.
If you try the opposite way, where you drag up to lines above, then it leaves 
the cursor at the beginning of the last line number you drag to.

Again this behavior may make sense the way that it is, but can just be a little 
visually confusing with the cursor and the line highlight color advancing to 
the next line.
Thank You
