I think it should be made an opt-in feature because a) it is pretty breaking behaviour and b) at least I don't use relative line numbers. |

I propose this PR to change vertical block movement. Old behavior: count means "total distance of the movement". New behavior: count means "destination position of block, relative to cursor". See #79.
I made a few experiments and I believe this could become the new default behavior, without requiring configuration. I don't see much usefulness in thinking in terms of distance instead of destination. This is because many (most?) Vim users use relative line numbers all the time. In case you disagree and prefer this to be an opt-in feature, I can add a config for it.
