Let me add my favorite (grrrr...):  "yank" or "delete" a matched pair of
parentheses, braces, or brackets with y% or d% (a character-oriented copy into
the unnamed buffer), then go somewhere else and "put" it.  Oops!  You made a
mistake, you actually wanted to put it somewhere else, so "undo" and move the
cursor to where you really wanted, and "put" the buffer there.  What's this?
Along with the matched pair, you also get the entire line from where you
mistakenly put it first!  Present in 4.2, still unfixed in 4.3...
