Description
When I select a line that's out of the range of the screen, the cursor will move but the viewport won't, so the cursor can end up outside the screen.
Steps to reproduce: go to https://play.rust-lang.org/?version=nightly&mode=release&edition=2018&gist=e59b183cd5eeeea326a6864c56aa5ad0 and hit :50.

Research direction
Open the linked Rust Playground URL and reproduce the issue by entering :50 with Vim keybindings enabled. Start by tracing the Vim keybinding handling for line selection and the viewport behavior. Done means selecting an off-screen line also scrolls the viewport so the cursor remains visible.
