For Emacseers, this sounds essentially equivalent to ace-jump-mode[1] There's a nice intro video by EmacsRocks at [2]. [1] https://github.com/winterTTr/ace-ju

  ace-jump-mode is the absolute Emacs nuts and every Emacseers ought to spend the two minutes it takes to understand how it works because it is the biggest time saver ever. You must be able to type any letter/number on your keyboard without looking at your keyboard that said because the way to use it efficiently consist in first looking where you want move your cursor, then invoking the shortcut while keeping your eyes on your target. That's how you can be really very efficient. Note that the latest version can also "ace jump" across various Emacs frames (previously it was limited to buffer(s) inside the current frame). But to be honest the thing posted here for vim is different: Emacs' ace-jump-mode is vim's easymotion and the author of this new vim navigation feature suggest also using easymotion. But, yeah... Anyone using Emacs or vim and not using ace-jump-mode / easymotion is totally unaware of what he is losing. Every single time I demonstrate that to coworkers I see a jaw dropping ; )
