It would be possible to make option-key presses being sent directly on to Vim which would (I think) fix the problem you are having. But...then it would be impossible to type characters that are only accessible by pressing option-key. This probably won't make a difference if you are programming and only accessing ASCII characters, but on many non-English keyboards some very essential characters are "hiding" behind an option-key. That is the reason why MacVim works the way it does now. I guess it would be possible to implement a setting which, when turned on, doesn't "interpret" option-keys so that they are passed on to Vim as the key pressed plus the option modifier. Has anybody else any comments on this? I'm not sure what the best solution is here.
