No idea where these files come from or what they're for. I ended up

Is there any way to tell vim NOT to create them in the first place?

Congrats! Works out of the box and does exactly what I had in mind:

is to use the :g(lobal) command to build the array.

Interesting answers indeed.
Looking at my problem from a different angle I eventually noticed
something that allowed me to single out the outcome of the incorrect
changes and let me reverse them
Scenario:
- I open a file
- I make one big global change (C0)... say via substitute+regex
- I proceed to make more changes (C1, C2, ... Cn).
While *still editing the file* I realize that the initial change (C0)
was in error.
Can I undo the initial change (C0) and keep all the ensuing changes?
I just found a pandoc.vim syntax file at github that appears to does the
job… only had to do a ':set cole=0' to get rid of the fancy 'conceal'
gimmickry and it seems to highlight inline foonotes reliably.
Sorry fo the noise.
