This is a problem I am occasionally stumbling on:
as I am done typing some new next in insert mode, I want
to highlight and erase some text ahead of the insert point.

Best case, I can type:   <ESC>lv
But if I am at the end of the line, this won't work
 (the last character I inserted will be selected as well).

It would be nice if there was a convenient way to go
directly from insert mode to visual mode, while ensuring
that the visual selection starts at the current insertion
point.
Is there an easy way to do so ?
