The vim clipboard integration was unreliable across browsers
(library "+" register broken on Firefox; custom navigator.clipboard
actions worked on Chrome but hit chip prompts and Firefox config
edge cases). The modal dropdown layer added more state than it
saved keystrokes. Pulling both back out.
What remains of the vim work:
- CodeMirror + @replit/codemirror-vim in the input buffer
(i/Esc, hjkl, word/line motions, yy/p via vim's internal
register, undo, /, :)
- Shift-H / Shift-L focus navigation across controls, including
the H/L override inside the editor so it works from any focus
