Selecting multiple words/General multiple moves

[naryl]

I still have a feeling it was reported, even though I couldn't find it in the issues. :/

So, when you do something like d5w in vim it deletes the following five words.
The Helix way is supposed to be 5wd, except the selection stays only on the fifth word and it's the only one that gets deleted. I know I can do v5wd but I really don't like engaging visual mode manually. My proposal is to make any combination of a number with a move command act like they're in an implicit visual mode.

This has indeed been talked about! I suggest you look at (and share your views in) #1570

I for one also think it should work as you say.

Thanks!
