Feature Request: Vim dot to repeat last command

[Semnodime]

The first thing that made me have a happy grin on my face when using vim as text edior was when I learned about the vim dot repeat function. It was the first experience of how one can simply automate tedious, linear and repetetive tasks with a single key.

As years have passed since, I hereby kindly request to review request #1785 with the goal of implementing a way to repeat the last action taken using vimium.

This is quite powerful for things like going one tab left ( or previousTab). If you want to do that multiple times you could just go on tab left once and then easily navigate through your tabs while just pressing the dot key ..

I have map <a-c> previousTab and map <a-v> nextTab, so I can switch tabs one by one by pressing and holding <a-c>.

This is quite neat for switching tabs. But the vim . is far more powerful than just repeating a single action: it is repeating any action the user has executed lastly and thus dynamically enables a more efficent workflow.

I think it's super useful feature

So, they still "Lack of interest"?

I doubt that if they use VIM often in normal life.
