This is great. Its too bad there isn't a +1 button for comments in github issues, because some of them are just incredibly important to highlight. I just installed VSCode and was impressed overall and would absolutely use it, except I could never switch to an editor that didn't have basic things like this, which was mentioned in the issue thread.

  Numeric arguments (3dd, 2x, ...)
  support for combining commands (ci[, cW, ggVG, ...)
  visual commands

Anyone who uses vim primarily lives by these features.
