I'm not seeing this behavior in either vim 6.4.6 on Linux or vim 6.2 on 
OS X.  What version of vim are you using?

If you want to have shift+arrows act like they do in non-vi modes, add 
the following to your custom keybindings:
  'Shift-Down': 'next-line-extend'
  'Shift-Up': 'previous-line-extend'
  'Shift-Left': 'backward-char-extend'
  'Shift-Right': 'forward-char-extend'
You may also want to add additional bindings from the keymap.basic file 
in the Wing IDE install directory.

Thanks,

John
