"d" does not respect remappings of movement keys

See original GitHub issue

Colemak users remap “hjkl” to “snei”, after doing this:

dn -> should be equivalent to dj on a non-remapped config.

Instead dn does “delete to next match” as if n hadn’t been remapped to j.

I tried to remap dn to dj using the config but that also didn’t work.

I’m a Dvorak user who is also experiencing the same issue. I use “htns” instead of “hjkl” and pressing “dt” does the same thing as if I had not mapped “t” to “j”.

A fix for this would be very much appreciated.

If it’s useful, I created this fork where I hardcoded the extension to you colemak remappings: https://github.com/ollyhayes/Colemak-Vim. You can install it from the extension store.

I’ve been using it for the last year and it’s been working really well. Dvorak users or Colemak users that remap differently can make a fork themselves using the same technique probably.
