Hi, As new sup, but experienced vim user, I relatively quickly understood
the 'modes' concept (although a short Wiki article would be helpful for
novices).
However, it is confusing to me that the same key could have different
meanings in different modes. As well, some keybindings seem redundant and
increase complexity. E.g. '.s', ',s', ']s' are related to spam, but 's'
could also mean 'save message'. 'S' is used for marking spam in one mode,
and for searching contacts in a different mode.
My suggestion would be to unify the keybindings in the different modes -
i.e. to define more global keybindings - and to use unique ones where
needed. Some keybindings are more confusing than helpful in my opinion.
Thus, one option could be the definition of 'keybindings sets' (e.g.
'minimal', 'full') and/or an curses-menu for activating/ disabling
keybindings (ideally, with custom entries).
Best regards,
Robert
