Research direction
Start by reproducing the behavior in VSCodeVim v1.27.3 on VSCode 1.90.0 and macOS 14.5: hold j in normal mode, release it, and observe the cursor movement. The issue names no source file or test entry point, so locate the key-handling path first. Done means releasing j does not cause an additional unintended line jump.
