Dear Maintainer,

Clicking anywhere in a tab character other than its leftmost column
causes the cursor to be placed on the next character after the tab
instead of putting it on the tab character itself.

This is especially obnoxious in selection mode, e.g. say you have some
tab-separated columns of text, e.g.:

abc     foo
x       bar

If you now start block-selection mode on the topleft and try to select
the first column of text using the mouse you'll end up also selecting
the "f" of "foo" and "b" of "bar".


This is a regression, it worked correctly in bullseye (vim 8.2.2434).


I only use vim in text mode (xterm mouse) but gvim appears to be
affected in the same way based on some quick testing.
