Soon NeoVim will no longer update regularly because Vim has caught up and/or surpassed it with every feature that matters...

By that time Emacs will have replaced temacs with Guile and someone clever will have added VimScript as a hosted language.

It's close, but I think NeoVim's RPC model could be huge. Writing a new frontend for vim no longer seems that crazy of a goal which makes it easier for people to experiment with new editor ideas while relying on the very solid core of vim (well at least I find that exciting, idk if the general vimmer cares).

I dream of the day that when you tick off "vim binding" in the settings of any IDE it loads neovim for controlling the buffer.

Or rather, a day where its easier, more flexible, and more performant for IDEs to always(only) use an embedded neovim. Getting plugin support "for free".

The keybindings would then be the only thing that the IDE changes.

I dream of the day when the IDE is in vim. There has been some great work around c# for this lately, where the compiler is running as a service and vim makes an async call for file completion, etc.

Why stop at the IDE? Why not tick a checkbox in system preferences and it lets you use vim to edit anywhere you can type text.

Now I would pay for that feature decent sum of money :D.

Are you familiar with Wasavi? Vi(m?) for browser text windows, at least.

The neovim project is still a massive undertaking about refactoring such old and non trivial piece of code in what appears to be a smooth way. I hope they can keep working on it, in symbiosis with vim.
