Description

See #705 first. I'd like to use this issue specifically to understand what features people would miss from Vimperator, so that we can try to ensure that any WebExtensions port/successor contains them. What follows is my personal opinion:

High priority

• user remappable keys to arbitrary commands (e.g. bind s ogoogle )
• moving around page
• link hinting mode
• insert/passthrough mode
• find in page mode
• history navigation
• tab switching / navigation (:buffer style)
• opening/closing URLs / tabs / windows
• consistent UX: e.g, works on about:newtab, about:home, hopefully others.

Medium priority

• bookmarks
• hide Firefox GUI
• window switching

Low priority

• download UI (can't use about:downloads unless Firefox devs change their minds).
• :js
• VIMPERATOR_INIT

Please disagree with me below 😄.
