And this has been done in commit 4210051.

No, it won't lose anything because text objects have no function in
Motion state /per se/. What you probably want to do (and this is still
possible) is to create a Visual selection in a buffer that came up in
Motion state (e.g., "viwiw"). But this calls the text object ("iw") in
Visual state, not Motion state; if you were to call a text object in
Motion state, nothing would happen.

The only reason text objects were bound in `evil-motion-state-map' was
so that Visual state and Operator-Pending state could inherit the
bindings from that keymap. Now that text objects bindings have their
own keymaps, this is no longer necessary.
