Tests are desperately needed.

evil-backward-word-begin throws this error in the following situation. The cursor is over the colon.

(empty line)
 :text

The real reason evil-backward-word-begin is called in a situation where it throws an error is because the (= initial-col (current-column)) check isn't working. For example, calling (progn (evil-previous-line) (current-column)) in this situation will return 1 instead of 0. Evaling (current-column) again will correctly give 0. This happens for some reason with (align-column) and (evil-column) even when using the actual buffer position. This means that (evil-column 1) and (align-column 1) can return different values even for buffers that are exactly the same.

This package looked pretty interesting and useful based on the gif from the readme on textobj-word-column.vim, but trying to replicate the functionality that that gif seems to display didn't really work out. I'm not sure if this is a difference in the port or if I'm simply doing things wrong.

For example, trying to do dic to delete a common prefix character on the same column in consecutive rows ended up deleting more than just that prefix character. Overall I'm not quite sure what motions/operations one could actually do with this. Would you mind describing some examples?
