This exists with the "as" text object.

For example:

Sentence one. Sentence two. Sentence three.
Sentence four. Sentence five. Sentence six.

Place the cursor anywhere on "Sentence two." Type the three keys,
"das". Place the cursor on the space between "Sentence four." and "Sentence five." Press p to paste. Get:

Sentence one. Sentence three.
Sentence four. Sentence two. Sentence five. Sentence six.

It doesn't do the smart rebalancing of spaces on the paste; perhaps you could add that with a mapping. But the cut/copy is easy.
