In my opinion, what should happen is that Vim notices that no characters have been added, thus will not try to replay the change to other lines. Perhaps we could work on another operation in Visual mode for repeating a delete operator in a number of lines. I don't think something would be need in Visual block mode, you can already delete or change a visual block. It's probably only interesting to repeat a change or delete operation relative to the end of a line.
