I feel like I often overselect when repeating the x command, but the only way I know of to fix it is vk<esc> which is not the most fun to type. Does anyone have a good binding or option for undoing an over-selection? I'm aware of #3776 but curious what workarounds people do now.

This is one of the most requested things I always see around Helix, so it will become a thing at some point I am sure.

I'm still in the "x doesn't delete things here" space.. So many years of vi/vim usage, so hard to change that muscle memory..
