Vim modes are kind of mature, but that's simply not enough imho. Even the best of them (like Evil mode) have enough deviations in behaviour to throw me off regularly. IntelliJ constantly auto-indents and reformats the code I'm currently writing, breaking my focus on it all the time. You might think those are unimportant details, but when someone relies on muscle memory and keyboard-heavy controls it just doesn't always lead to an expected result. Especially once you add configuration files and plugins into the mix.
IDEs should just support NeoVim integration for text editing. It removes the need to replicate anything because it's literally just Vim with the unchanged user configuration. I think it would be a win for both users and developers.
