Nah, it would just be *way* easier to use the '~' command.  The above
modifiers really shines, though, when it is not clear what work may be
matched by the expression on the right, and you are saving in a /( /)
construct.  That is not the case in this simple example, though.  

The g~w command mentioned erlier seems to be the best.  Does anyone know
if this is just vim, or also a vi thing?
