Suggestion: vim-like use of numbers #105

I noticed we aren't using number keys for much (anything?) yet. Amp could potentially use them the same way you might in vi/vim: to repeat the following instruction.

Example: Highlighting this row and the next three could be V, 3, down arrow.

I agree - coming from vi/vim I mainly use this to yank multiple lines and/or copy a register x times. In amp it could be 3y then 3p
