This will execute the (mapped) normal-mode command yss<tagname>, which
surround.vim will use to surround the entire line in a <tagname> tag

Works for me (mostly, it behaves badly for me due to my "selection"
option setting, but it surrounds without deleting at least). Maybe
there is a setting somewhere which interferes.
