Yes, for now I'm just using the built in forward/backward-word
commands for them as they were close enough to get started. The 'W'
and 'E' commands I've implemented myself and (barring a few edge
cases) should place the cursor in the right place.
I need to implement 'w' and 'e' (and change 'W' and 'E') so they work
as directional modifiers as well as for navigation, so the correct
functionality is coming :)

Done. If you grab the latest version there is now a vi_mode variable
that you can use with something like this:
function fish_prompt -d "Write out the prompt"
printf '%s@%s%s%s%s [%s]> ' (whoami) (hostname|cut -d . -f 1)
(set_color $fish_color_cwd) (prompt_pwd) (set_color normal) $vi_mode
It currently gets set to one of 'I' (insert), ' ' (normal), 'R'
(overwrite) and 'r' (replace single). I'm open to feedback on whether
they are appropriate choices.
I ran into some trouble implementing this - I couldn't get the prompt
to repaint when going into normal mode (yet worked fine when entering
insert mode). I eventually figured out that 'bind '' self-insert'
seems to be required for this to work for some reason... so now normal
mode does that, then binds all printable 7-bit ASCII characters to do
nothing before assigning the real bindings - a bit wasteful and ugly,
so if anyone can suggest a better way to solve this, please let me
know.
Cheers,
-Ian
