I won't be touching it until VIM support is a thing, it feels weird to see or use an editor without support for basic VIM keybindings...

It's not a matter of keybindings -- Nova is a modeless editor, and Vim is a modal one, so you need to have an entirely different interaction model. Not every editor's extension system is capable of that. (AFAIK, Vim itself isn't capable of changing interaction models -- while I've seen "Emacs keybindings" for Vim, they don't make Vim into a modeless editor.)
