Thanks

Jup, right now a space is the only way to recognize the difference
between a command and its arguments.

However, in vimperator there is an even faster way to use the :b
command, just type 'b' only (without the : before it), and you can
directly write its number.

However, if you know the number, you could also do 11gt, to go to the
11th tab which is the same as b11<return>
