Great product, as it is the only Vim extension on the Chrome Web Store that works for Google Docs. Overall, I would definitely recommend it, but it could use some other additions to navigation.
- Using Control Keys for navigation, including Ctrl-E, Ctrl-Y, Ctrl-D, and Ctrl-U for moving the buffer up and down
- Fix error where holding keys including 'h', 'k', and 'l' for Vim navigation opens auto suggestions for diacritics
- Typing colon will open the option menu on Google Docs, acting as Vim "Command Line"
- Fix bug where Vim Visual Line Mode within a paragraph will select the entire paragraph
- Finally, additional features that the extension lacks (I understand that this is a new project)
