Further to the point made about vim being a text manipulation language - it's very well defined. Voice control is a more advanced means of communicating with a computer, keyboards are not all we have anymore. What you're saying is contradicted by what's demonstrated right here. Voice works right now with vim's text manipulation language, have a look at the vim golf example. This ancient technology could be used to make voice editing a reality for people who would rather learn 'delete five lines' than "5dd". I haven't yet seen another editor that would allow code be manipulated this was with voice controls, besides emacs. It's a testament to the configurability and extensibility of vim that it can stay current in this manner. VimGolf is basically a challenge to make certain edits with as few vim commands as possible. Unless I am mistaken, google glass uses the android voice recognition software.
