Short description of error
vertex slide always uses increment snapping instead of what's selected in the snap options.

Exact steps for others to reproduce the error
set vertices as the snap option, shift+v or GG, then slide trying to snap to another vertex. The snap appears to snap to increments instead. Or is there some way you can lock the direction line angle, and then the snap works?

actually i've just found a way of locking the direction angle line. You just press C to clamp after you have the dashed angle line correctly set so that all verts move along the intended edges. After this I thought it might revert to the selected snap type, but it's still using incremental.

I think after clamp has been activated, then the active vert should slide along the edge its clamped to until it's in line with the target vert. The non active verts should slide along their clamped edges by the same distance, either relative to their edge length, or by the same value.

This is a known limitation.
There are plans to support this. See:
