By "remote editing protocol," I meant the Neovim RPC API which allows other editors or tools to run a Neovim server and get it's exact behavior, keystroke for keystroke. It's been a few years since I tried EVIL, but last time I ran into behavior differences within fifteen minutes (something about pane management? It's been a while). I don't want "almost exactly Vim," I want, "literally identical to Vim," as a starting point.

Sublime Text has a plugin which implements the API; it runs full blown vim plugins.

.. .. I didn't realize the integration was that far along. I'll have to give Sublime another look.
