One of the things that I inherited with the Vim port was the DEFAULT_VIMRC option (which installs /usr/ports/editors/vim/files/vimrc), and I haven't touched it.

I have moused disabled in all my boxes so I have no idea about bad mouse behaviour in Vim. If there is a bad default that is causing grief, let's just fix it in that default vimrc.

I'm not really understanding what the unexpected behaviour is so I can't make an intelligent recommendation myself, but I'll go with whatever you folks suggest.
