Text selections made in visual mode are lost when switching back to normal mode. This issue affects the ability to use web-specific shortcuts after making a selection.

Steps to Reproduce:

  1. Select text in visual mode using 'v-v'.
  2. Press 'v' to return to normal mode.
  3. Text selection is lost.

Expected Behavior:
Text should remain selected after switching modes to enable further actions.

Thanks for looking into this!

I have a workaround: press "cq", followed by "Esc", which will highlight a word, and then use "Shift + →" to move the cursor and select additional text.
