I haven't been able to find mention of this behavior anywhere; when I enter insert mode through a, all of my insertion is selected as I type it. This does not happen when I enter insert mode through i, I, or even A. Is this expected behavior, and if so, why? I can imagine being convinced that it's beneficial to auto-select each insertion, but then this should be the behavior regardless of how I entered insert mode. I can take this on if the change is desired.

Yes, verified this happening in top-of-tree. I agree that any insert operation should not select by default.

The current behavior of a is intentional.
