Once in a while I want to do that. It is easy: C-a C-k C-k,
they C-y as many times as needed.
Instead of a command to duplicate the current line repeatedly,
how about a command to yank the current kill repeatedly?
That would be useful in a much broader range of situations.
I wonder if the current meaning of the numeric argument to C-y (reach
back in the kill ring) is actually useful. Would it be better for
it to repeat the yank in this way?
