I'm doing less and less operations in insert mode, and I agree that it
is a better way to edit. I think the only situation where I actually
need to move around is when I type something like that (JS):
myFunc({ Obj: "true"})
I tend to write myFunc(), then move one char left, then type {}, etc..
The only better ways I found were:
1. create an imap {} {}<Left>
2. use <C-O>h
The first one is annoying when I want to just type {} alone and I'm
having hard time getting used to the second.. But I'll get there.
