i don't see how this is any different from opening every toolbar window in PyCharm and cluttering the interface.

emacs evil does the best emulation. IdeaVim fails at two of the most important emulation tasks: escape and undo.

i used webstorm for a while to do javascript/html, but once i got proficient with vim it wasn't even close. just like how people are going crazy with livereload and how it makes development awesome, that's how i feel with using vim. it does what i tell it to do NOW, not 3 seconds from now.
