If you entered the wrong :s command (or any other ex command) you
don't actually need to re-highlight the block. Just press : then the
up arrow to recall the last command, edit it to taste, and run it
again. You'll note the '<,'> remains at the beginning of the line, so
it acts on the last selected visual selection regardless of whether
you are currently in Visual Mode or not.
