Thanks. Yes the count/repetition code needs an overhaul. I'm not sure
whether it makes sense to move it into the operator implementation
themselves though. Feels wrong. Also there are multiple "operators" which
will need it. For example when . repeats the last insertion a count
should also be supported. Then there is the question of what to do
with "n operator m movement" where vim multiplies them i.e. count is n*m.
However there seem to be cases like the shift operators > and < where
it would make sense to keep them separate.

Needs some more thought ...
