Looks like a bulky version of quick-scope (maybe inspired by?): https://github.com/unblevable/quick-scope

They're completely different in functionality...I've never been able to get quick-scope working FWIW and not sure what the value add is for it (after reading the README many times).

I have EasyMotion installed but don't use it often. This reminds me very much of EasyMotion, why should I use vim-snipe over the fact that I already have EasyMotion installed?
