What Vim Motions Do I Need For This?
I think my single most-used plugin is ReplaceWithRegister. Using that, your 4th step would be gri" (go replace inside quotes).

What is the coolest, unknown(-ish) plugin that you're using that other people could benefit from?
2 essential plugins for me that I don’t see talked about much anymore are vim-scripts/ReplaceWithRegister and vim-scripts/ReplaceWithSameIndentRegister. The vanilla way to do this is not super difficult, delete into the black hole register, then paste. Or visually select, then paste. And afterwards clean up the formatting if necessary. But I do this hundreds of times a day, the convenience of having a dedicated command for it is massive.

Favorite unfamous vim/neovim plugin?
One that I use literally 50 times a day is (Replace with register)[https://github.com/vim-scripts/ReplaceWithRegister]. It lets you replace the motioned content with your register, so griw would replace the current word object with the register. Absolutely lost with out it.
