text-objects motions (i_, a_)

[michaelficarra]

With _ being one of the following values (in usefulness order): ", ', t, (, ), [. ], {, }, <, >, w. I'd love to see these. Proper behaviour when combined with counts is unnecessary for me, but would be impressive.

If you're not familiar with these motions, :h text-objects

edit: remember that these are not just motions in visual mode, but motions for c, d, y, etc.

Text objects are definitely on the roadmap, but they're on the farther-down-the-road-map since they'll take some effort to implement correctly. They should be language aware so that ci) doesnt match a paren inside a string, for instance.

Can't wait for this feature :) And what is your current roadmap, what's close on the way?
