Someone here might suggest using <C-O> and an :undojoin operation inside those functions. And maybe that could work. That is basically the method used by the delimitMate pull request I keep mentioning. The problem with this method, is that the <C-O> triggers the special multi-line insert in visual block mode, and the rest of the insertion just affects one line. Perhaps just fixing this would allow this method to succeed?
