Valiant effort and impressive personal project!

> I'm currently working on the missing pieces, like multi cursor support(in master but not released yet), mouse support, sane default key bindings(probably I'll stick to an existing editor), basic UX etc.

Website claims "Native GUI" but this is not native GUI. I'd rather have basic UX before multi cursor or anything else nice to have but totally optional things. On Windows open dialog is broken, you can't select drives, you have to enter the drive letter manually, but in input field delete key is not working. That's as far as I got trying it out.

Maybe the author should use a library like native-dialog (https://crates.io/crates/native-dialog) for these rather than making a file picker from scratch in Druid (the current Rust UI framework).
