Let's be clear: there are two completely separate issues here. 1. Allowing plain-key key bindings in Leo. This is going to happen for a very simple reason: it will be incredibly useful to me :-) 2. Creating better integration between Leo and vim/gVim. This is also going to happen because some people who use both Leo and vim want it to happen, and because it sounds like a great idea to me. So let's not argue about whether 1 or 2 is more important :-) Let's just get on with it. gVim is scriptable in Python (provided it was enabled during > compiling) and in my (limited) experience integration of VimScript (or > whatever it is called) with Python is flawless.
