Regarding VIM enabling visual mode after right clicking. I opened a ticket via github https://github.com/vim/vim/issues/1326 . Hopefully we can get a answer over there. This was a slight problem for me until I found i could disable this by issuing :set mouse-=a .. My ticket on github is more of a question if this is by design or truly a bug.

hope this helps . I know this bug ticket was open a few months back. So i figure i would post as this may help others.
