This allows users to navigate in FOO_BAR by word. Previously, it would
move across the whole FOO_BAR.

This is recommended by Stefan Monnier, the former GNU Emacs

@dominikh friendly ping -- this keeps words and symbols distinct. Would you be willing to merge this?

This would also require changing some of the regular expressions, which currently only match on word characters, not symbols. And that would lead to the problems I've mentioned in #69

I'm going to close this PR as I think its a duplicate of #69.
