Description
prompt-toolkit brings lots of new functionality to recent versions of my Python REPL of choice, IPython. I quickly noticed, however, that the "dot" keybinding appears to be missing in both IPython and pyvim. Can this be added?

Research direction
Start by locating the vi-mode keybinding definitions used by prompt-toolkit, then compare the behavior in IPython and pyvim. Confirm how the missing dot repeat command should work in vi mode and add coverage showing that it repeats the previous change; done means the binding works in both named integrations.
