I'm going to describe the problem with a (not so) fictional 2nd person scenario.

Imagine you have the same file opened in Vertical split and because you want to work at different positions of the file.

You work on line 283 on the right hand split and then you decide you want change something at the top of the file, so you go on the left hand split, you use you mouse to scroll to the top of the file in this left split, and then you click where you want your cursor to be positioned.

The click reflects the change (the cursor seems to be positioned where you clicked), and now you are ready to go into insert mode, so you press i.

This is the moment when the cursor jumps to the position it is in the right view, and you realize that you entered in insert mode there instead of where you clicked.

This has been immensely frustrating for me. Can anybody confirm this issue?
