Hi,

The philosophy behind the langmap setting is to be able edit your
keyboard layout for everything but actually inserting text. Or as the
help page says: "This means you don't have to change the keyboard mode
to be able to execute Normal mode commands."
I really like this idea but I think that the current implementation is
incomplete. In my opinion it should be extended to support modifier
keys.

For instance, if I ":set langmap=rw" and then press <C-r> the expected
behavior would be the equivalent of pressing <C-w>.

This should also apply to insert mode so that <C-[>, <C-X>, <C-R> etc
in insert mode are easily available for everyone.

I think this would make many .vimrc files out there a lot cleaner.


Best regards,

Albin Olsson
