Thanks for pointing this out. I just noticed that ghc warnings catch that issue too. I should have paid closer attention.
While sed can use arbitrary characters in a substitution, vim cannot use letters, and possibly other characters. Using / can be tedious when you have a lot of slashes in your pattern than need escaping. In Yi, there doesn't seem to be any way to escape the delimiter at the moment, so alternate characters are even more useful. Now to think of a safer way to accomplish this.
