Consider defining you own operator ":help map-operator".

The best I could come up with is:

function! s:delete (type)
" I don't know why the motion must be forced to be inclusive with 'v'.
exe "normal! `[dv`]"
endfunction
nnoremap <A-p> Pl:set opfunc=<SID>delete<CR>g@

which defines <Alt-p>{motion} to paste text (before the current poistion, like "P") and delete according to {motion}.

It's not very elegant (pasting is done before the motion is completed, which is confusing), plus it takes two undo's instead of one, but it may be the first step in the right direction.

Best,
Paul
