All of these solutions seemed very heavyweight in my usage. I wanted something that fit within my existing flow and using copilot.vim, EDITOR=nvim, C-x C-e was the solution for me. https://news.ycombinator.com/item?id=40911564

It's very composable and I can do incremental work with it.

You can also use esc-v to get to the editor if you switch your input to vim mode with "set -o vi" in your .bashrc file.

Or for extra points ^[v which will serve as a handier escape, as well.

Despite being vimian I've found set -o vi hard to work with. Do you like it? Neovim terminal seems better for me since output is selectable in the buffer.

It's a muscle you build. If you're using vim then you'll like it better. You have to imagine the ex mode buffer.
