Description
Describe the bug
If you have a long file (longer than one window) and you add cursors with "gb", at some point it will start selecting words that are out of the window.
To Reproduce
Steps to reproduce the behavior:
- write a file with a lot of identical lines
foo
foo
foo
...
- go on a "foo"
- press "gb" multiple times
Expected behavior
Each time I press "gb", a new "foo" should be selected, and when a foo that is out of the window is selected, the window should scroll.
Obtained behavior
The window scrolls the first time only, but when a selection is more than half a window away from the first cursor, the window will focus on the first cursor and "gb" will keep selecting things out of the window.
Environment:
