Please do include an example.  I didn't understand how useful this new
variable could be until I read through the example posted previously.  Some
of us folks don't get it without an example.

[CCing this to the mailing lists; only went to Bram before, but some parts may 
be
useful for others.]

 I'm not quite convinced adding v:operator is useful.  What would help is
 giving a couple of examples how it's used.  Also, in the docs for
 v:operator it would be good to have a few examples of the values.  I
 suppose it can be one char, like d, but also something longer.  How
 about the count, e.g., when I do 4d?
