Description
VsCodeVim currently supports text objects such as text-object-entire and text-object-arguments. Would it be possible to extend the support to include additional text objects, similar to those provided by this Vim plugin:
https://github.com/jeetsukumaran/vim-pythonsense
These additional text objects include class objects, function objects, and docstring objects. The inclusion of these text objects would greatly enhance the usability, especially when users need to delete extensive blocks of code within a class or function.

Research direction
The issue names existing text-object-entire and text-object-arguments support and links the vim-pythonsense plugin as a reference. No file or test is identified, so first locate the existing text-object implementation and compare its behavior with the requested class, function, and docstring objects; done means those additional objects work for the relevant code blocks.
