Yes, block mode is the only place I really have a problem. curcorcolumn is useful in the other visual modes. Dominique's patch looks like an ideal solution to me. I actually just discovered that you can *almost* get Dominique's effect if you do: :hi Visual gui=reverse guifg=<old visual bg color> guibg=<old visual fg color> Then cursorcolumn ignores the fg color rather than the bg color. This still isn't ideal, but if you decide not to patch it, this will at least make cursorcolumn usable for me. Very few colorschemes I've tried actually reverse the Visual colors like that. Only a handful of the ones that come bundled with Vim do it (e.g. the default scheme doesn't). oceandeep does. The patch would make this look good with all colorschemes, I think.
