Description
When in the first line of 2 or more empty lines, typing v will select the start of the second line, which is not a correct behavior. It will make some motion behave incorrectly such as is.
The key sequence is v is

Research direction
Start by reproducing the v is sequence with the cursor at the end of the first line followed by two or more empty lines, then compare the selection with Vim's behavior shown in the issue. Trace the visual-mode selection and is motion handling to identify the relevant entry point; done means the second line is no longer selected and the motion behaves like Vim.
