Just tried it out, very impressive. :)

My personal favourites are all the rectangle and register commands.
Try `C-x r C-h' to get a list. And of course there is always the `C-x
C-SPC' or `C-x C-@' for navigation. Specially with the following
setting, `C-u C-SPC' comes alive.


set-mark-command-repeat-pop is a variable defined in `simple.el'.
Its value is t
Original value was nil

Documentation:
Non-nil means repeating . after popping mark pops it again.
That means that C-u . .
will pop the mark twice, and
C-u . . .
will pop the mark three times.

A value of nil means .'s behavior does not change
after C-u ..
