You're only targeting old 1990s GUI users there, though.

If you wanted to also help silghtly more modern users who are used to discoverable-UI conventions from mobile apps, you would have it so shaking your device brings up some form of chat bot, which would suggest asking it how to quit Vim.

1980s. [F1] is CUA 1987.

And one of these ideas is not like the others.

Clippy, please tell everyone how Lio's and my if-only-VIM-did-this ideas are different to Kerrick's idea.
