When in vim mode, Visual Block mode (ctrl+v) incorrectly manipulates tab characters as if they are of width one, rather than the width visually exposed.
Current behaviour
Screenshot (optional)
Provide steps to reproduce:
Create a document, such as a table, consisting of both tabs and spaces
|
\t|
set to use Vim mode and enter command mode (esc)
gg to go to the top
ctrl+v to enter visual block mode
G to go to the bottom row
A to append. Notice that rather than a clean block selection, a jagged edge is selected.
