It's great they mentioned vis in there. Its multiple selection mode is absolutely fantastic and now I feel like I can't live without it.

Though I still some bits from vim like the m and t operators, and search & replacing with s/<search>/<replace>/g instead of x/<search>/c/<replace>/; I feel like its original dev went a bit too far into sticking with Rob Pike's structural regular expressions that he purposely omitted those bits. Well, and the fact it alas does not have a server architecture thing - it will be great to have buffers!
