These move backwards, thus the selection being exclusive doesn't matter.
Using "b" works similarly, the cursor position is not included, thus
using "b" right after "v" doesn't include the cursor position. Same for
"ge" and "gE".

That's difficult to avoid, since the "e" works like "e" always works,
and then the selection is changed to include the cursor position.
Doing it otherwise could be considered wrong as well.
