I love text editors, especially Vim.
However, I realize we no longer are tied to paper or use low-power, low-bandwidth computers. Images, still and moving, effectively are as easily handled by the computing platform as words. I believe the reason humans have used text so much more than images so far is that never before in history have we had a platform that efficiently handles multimedia. I need to effectively express myself using images; you can see people naturally doing that for casual purposes with Snapchat, etc.[0]
But even with my eyes opened and my willingness to move forward, I'm limited by available tools. There is no productivity tool that a user can use to efficiently process mixed text and image (and audio).
We need a Vim for multimedia, or at least a Word.
[0] Yes, text is still a great tool, but it's not the best tool for every job.
