Thanks. Interesting idea. But if i am not mistaken, this will fail, if
there are tabs in front of the visual selction.
My current idea is to map a key like this:
xmap <silent><expr> key ":\<c-u>let g:curswant=".getcurpos()[4]."\n"
and then run :norm gvkey
This works, but is slightly clumsy...
Made me think, if visualmode should perhaps return '^V$' in this special
case?
Best,
Christian
