because it'll act on the whole line outside of the block
The vis.vim plugin supports this; in fact, it supports the application
of any command-mode command to a visual block.
For an example of that, considering filtering a visual block (eg. with
sort).
You can get the latest vis.vim from
http://mysite.verizon.net/astronaut/vim/index.html#VIS
or a more stable version from:
