Description

Is this a BUG REPORT or FEATURE REQUEST? (choose one):
Feature Request

What happened:
easymotion motions cannot be composed with edit commands.

What did you expect to happen:
If I enter an edit command and then perform a cursor move via easymotion, the edit command should be applied to the range of text covered by the cursor move just as it does for other motion commands such as f, t, and w.

Environment:

  • Extension Name: vim
  • Extension Version: 0.10.9
  • OS Version: Windows_NT x64 6.1.7601
  • VSCode version: 1.19.1

Research direction

Start by tracing how edit commands compose with the existing f, t, and w motion handlers, then compare that path with easymotion handling. Done means an edit command followed by an easymotion cursor move applies to the range covered by that move, matching the behavior of the other motions.
