If you're into hidden gems: * This fixes repeat behaviour for all visual modes, like proper . in visual block. * This this provides a proper paste-over operator, working with all register types (text?,line,block).

My favourite solution to this is the ReplaceWithRegister plugin.

I would recommend this plugin to solve this kind of problems https://github.com/inkarkat/vim-ReplaceWithRegister

Thanks a lot for this recommendation! This particular repo hasn't been updated since 2014, here is a more up-to-date version by the same author: https://github.com/inkarkat/vim-ReplaceWithRegister.

The best solution I've found to this is a plug-in called Replace with register, which maps to gr (mnemonic "go replace"). This lets you just do diw, move, griw.

If you don't mind using plugins, take a look at vim-replace-with-register, which is designed to solve exactly this problem. It gives you a command, mapped to gr by default, which replaces the following text object with the contents of a register. So you can delete a word (daw), then move to a different word and replace it with the contents of the default register (graw).
