Do you mean the following substitution?
I think :gs should always be treated as a unit.
} and then not treating the rest as text. This might make the proposal
} less than usable.
The same thing occurred to me when I saw your previous message.
} Hmm, how about
}
} !!:s/foo/bar/:G
Yes, I think that would be OK, especially because it also disambiguates
!!:s/foo/bar/:Gs/this/that/ -- the :G can always apply to the preceding
substitution and :g always to the following one.
That just leaves the question of whether the G is ignored in the case
!!:Gs/foo/bar/ (where there is no preceding substitution).
