evil-string-inflection's Issues

Error during startup

Hi, I'm facing a quite peculiar error. Whenever I start emacs, I get the following error message:

Debugger entered--Lisp error: (void-function evil-define-operator)

I'm not sure why it's unable to find evil-define-operator as my (use-package evil-string-inflection) call is located with evil's :config block so at that time, evil must be done loading. Also, I'm loading other evil-plugins which define operators before this (eg. evil-commentary, evil-exchange).

Hmm, digging more into this. This doesn't seem to be a load-order issue as it throws the error during the first package-initialize call. So even if I comment out the use-package call to this, I still see the error. Only thing that helps is deleting the package from elpa. I'm more confused than ever : /

Package binding hides a useful evil binding

The binding for g~ defined by evil (evil-invert-case) is actually useful. I bind evil-operator-string-inflection to g- which is a great mnemonic, easier to type and currently unused in evil. However g~ is still lost unless I rebind it. Consider a different binding or making the default binding optional.
