What did you do?

1. Enter visual line selection mode: V
2. Use gj to move between wrapped lines.

What did you expect to happen?

The selection to extend as many lines as required.

What happened instead?

The selection doesn't extend past three lines.

Technical details:

• VSCode Version: 1.10.2

As a temporary solution, you can remap j to gjo rather than just gj. 😉 But I think @xconverge has a better solution coming soon.

I should be able to work through this with what we have so far right now though, but it might not be pretty

Also we need to make sure the when we expand and shrink the selection, it works similar to how V with j and k work.

Currently, it seems like if you do V then gk gk gk gk, when you do gj, it will expand from the bottom, instead of shrinking the selection by 1 line
