Sublime Texts vintage mode doesn't feel like vim at all. Even basic things like ':x' are missing.

By the same token it would be a great way for new users to learn vim while maintaining the comforts of ctrl-c ctrl-v and tab indents etc...
MacVim is great for that (if, of course, you are on a mac). It has all the great vi stuff along with the core OS style commands that everyone is familiar with. I believe gVim on Windows does the same but I'm not positive on that.

How would you do that? ctrl-v for instance is really useful in Vim.
You can probably implement these things yourself once you notice them missing.
