By the way, that technique also works in vim and some other editors, I think.

Yep. Allows for some seriously cool programmatic editing:

    g/^abc/norm ^3wciwHello^V^]2ei!

Any line starting with abc, replace the 3rd word with hello, and append an exclamation mark to the end of the 5th word. ^] is the control char for escape.
