I'm one of those people that cannot use a browser without vim bindings, so thank you so much for posting this. I'm going to give it a try.

Generally I find that if it's just a standard html form, I actually prefer to have it get piped into urxvt because if I don't want to post it right away, I can simply ':w ~/aaa' and come back later without any worries. Can I do that easily with this?

I also like whenever I come across someone doing something messy in javascript (that isn't being blocked by umatrix), and making me fight them, it's nice to just be able to say, "hey, I'm gonna strip anything I've already typed out of the DOM, give it to me, and I'll give it back when you learn to play nice. No jsoup for you."

So yeah. I like how it is for me. Of course, everyone does. https://xkcd.com/1172/

This lets you edit text fields in a real text editor of your choice.
