Sorry if this sounds negative, but I'm perplexed why you would even involve yourself in the discussion when you don't have an opinion. It's like asking a bicyclist about how highways should work. They might go "I don't want any highways at all", but that's hardly useful to highway users (environmental concerns notwithstanding).

I do, and this is one of the reasons I've never bothered with all of the details and shortcuts that you like.
Vim attempts to make the best possible text editor. It doesn't let "OS conventions" dictate what makes good text editing experience. What you get from apps staying to strict OS guidelines is a bunch of average -- not terrible but not inspiring -- applications.
