No My patch does not break it.
You can still paste a rectangular chunk and it works just as before.
But if a rectangular selection is active and a single, non-block string of text is in the clipboard, it will only paste in the first line of the rectangular selection. This is just as it is now.
What I was saying is that it would be nice if the single item of text that had been previously Copied or Cut would be replicated on every line of the rectangular selection. That is the extension of column mode that I think would make it complete.
OK, I wasn't sure, thanks for explaining. That might be a nice feature, but of course it's not necessary ;-)
