care overly much whether vim complains about existing ownership problems
overly much.
Perhaps an option could be added to control this (in case a user should
/want/ a root .viminfo in a regular user home dir, for some reason),
with the default set for non-creation.
As an alternative, what about vim nusing a uid-based name for .viminfo,
when it detects the ownership mismatch? Say, .viminfo-u%d, where %d is
vim's euid?
Couldn't we set up that latter part manually somehow with scripts?
Like, if I am root, viminfo is .viminfo-ux and otherwise, viminfo is
.viminfo-uy?

How does one make a function that will surround a visual selection?

Alternatively use cc to edit the ostensibly blank line. This will open
the line using the correct auto indent. Get into
et which one is my cursor. Is there any way that I can say,
make the cursor have a red background and make the matched paren (or
whatever) have a blue background? And is there a way to do this that
won't break if the background is already red/blue?
