No, you can't do that.
Either copy the text of the file into a new buffer, or give the existing buffer a
new name and then load the file again. E.g.:

That's a nice piece of Vimscript. Probably overkill for this situation,
at least if only run at startup before there are likely to be any local

Usually it makes the command apply to the whole file rather than the

Mmm. I suspect a lot of plugins do this, and I think it's actually
poor Vimscript.
Why?
Simply because it goes against established best practice.
It sounds, however, like you have a more comprehensive solution to allow
the user to load, suppress, unload and reload your plugins, and I think

Yes.

How annoying. Your Vim must be compiled with a system vimrc path
hardcoded in, rather than using $VIM.

Now for some solutions:
a) useC-R+ to paste: this works but lines of formatted text
usually ends up being a complete mess afterwards (the indentation
changes)
b) useC-RC-O+ to paste: this fixes 1 but not 2, formatting is ok
though
c) useC-O:set pasteCRC-R+C-O:set nopasteCR
