With regard to repeating macros, I'd like to add that a macro should be able to run on the selection, I think this will for the majority of cases take care of having to manually state the number of times the macro needs to be repeated.
But I'm keeping the vim count argument on my to-do as an 'this needs to be tried, if for no other reason than proof-of-concept'-item. With my current architecture it probably won't be that timely to implement, but it will have to wait a little though.
