My first attempt didn't go so well. I chose viper level 5.

1) V did not put me into line visual mode, instead it attempted to
"Find file in other window".

2) v did not put me into visual mode, instead it attempted to "Find
file"

3) Neither C-c nor C-[ took me out of insert mode back to normal mode.
There's no way I'm reaching for ESC each time.

So, that's pretty much a deal breaker, unfortunately.
