What exactly are you trying to do? Can you actually envision a use-
case for this?
To enter an Ex command while in insert mode, you need to leave insert
mode (possibly temporarily). There isn't really a way to create an Ex
command to execute from insert mode.
Pressing ':' in visual mode also ends visual mode. The only difference
between : in visual mode and : in normal mode is that the visual
selection is automatically inserted as the range for your command on
the command line. Therefore there isn't really a special way to create
a "visual mode" Ex command either.
