`r` in visual mode

support for r in visual mode would be nice

Wow, I didn't even know that worked. Just curious, what do you use that for?

[michaelficarra]

Haha, can't remember the last time I used it, but I certainly have had legitimate uses for it before. I opened this mainly because it would be consistent with the r support from normal mode and it seemed like it would be easy to implement.

That's one of the things that's great about Vim: there's a bunch of commands that end up being useful even if their usefulness is not immediately obvious. Consider this "on the list"
