Completely agree. Personally, I'm trying to spread the One True Way of ijkl navigation, but it's slow going...

  I'm curious: what do you use to enter insert mode then?

    Insert mode is for noobs. ;)

    Just recently I've been starting to rely on 'a' and 'A'. Maybe I could switch to ijkl

    In default vim, i inserts to the left of the cursor. In ijkl, you simply map h to insert left of the cursor. It's even on the left of your new arrow keys so the mental map works better too! I'm a huge ijkl fan, because I learned wasd long before I learned vim.

      Huh! This is really neat. Thanks for taking the time to evangelize. I might have to try this for a day.
