Personally, this is why I limit my usage with vim with the core vim(to me it means vim-as-out-of-package-or-gvim-package), my customimzed .vimrc, and highlighting plugin.

The original vim alone is more than enough to satisfy my needs, and it's compatible with virtually every machine that I'll be using after all.

I can venture on plugins for more convenience, but I already have an ample satisfaction and I would rather keep it that way.

I wrote this in vim, and copied here.

If you use Firefox, I recommend the It's All Text! plugin, which opens $EDITOR in a new window and seamlessly transfers its contents into the textfield you care about.

I think a Chrome version is in the works, but there's nothing releasable yet.

I use vimium for chrome; it's wonderful.

I use and enjoy vimium too...but it doesn't help with editing text fields.
