 Problem being, that if I had a line like;

  <indexterm id="i-611f-27e6-1012824842"><primary>Patches</primary><secondary>settings</secondary></indexterm>

 and I wanted to change that indexterm tag, I would delete it & type in
the macro (",index" at the moment).

  ,index<primary>Patches</primary><secondary>settings</secondary></indexterm>

 this will give;

  <indexterm <primary>Patches</primary><secondary>settings</secondary></indexterm> id="i-5947-3b12-1012825371">

 Which a "J" won't help. I need to be able to read in between the ",index"
and the "<primary>". Just seems to be a major shortcoming in Vim.
