I'm somewhat new to Vim, but from what I learned in Vimtutor I think this is a bug;
When you select text either with v or the mouse and type the command :'<,'>w FILENAME (the first part being automatic), it's expected to save the selection into a file, but instead it saves the entire document into FILENAME.

Having it fixed would help with, for example, creating templates that you can then call with :r FILENAME
