Python syntax is clean and simple. But unfortunately too clean for Vim tricks like yi{ which can be done in languages like C.

Is there a way to have yank work in different indentation levels?

I use a plugin https://github.com/michaeljsmith/vim-indent-object/ to provide indent-based text objects. It seems to work well.
