Provided that there is some trailing white space behind each item.
(In my example, the . will represent whitespace)

This makes the e movement exclusive. And therefore, it won't delete the
i.

Now use d/i/e+ you get
abc.
jkl.
(that is expected) but I wanted to get
abc.
.
jkl.
So I thought using v would force the motion to be characterwise, e.g.
dv/i/e+ you get that result, but instead you still get
abc.
jkl.
The offset doesn't work here. Either you remove the i and the complete
line or you keep the i with the trailing whitespace.
There is no way, to remove the i but include the whitespace.
(The reason I noticed is, I am trying to map the f to a function that
works like f, but works on several lines, so I am mapping the f to some
search function and for the above example that fails).

Christian
