This works, thanks. However, this raises more questions:
Why does the following implementation of “if” copy one line more
than necessary? If I run yif it says “8 lines yanked”. If I run yi{
it says “7 lines yanked”.
onoremap if :<C-U>normal! [[vi{<cr>
What is conceptually wrong with yi[[ or yi[m when it works with
other motions like yis or yi{? Since vim has an understanding of
functions (determined by the outermost brace pair probably) why is
there no built in way to use this information for a motion?
