This is intended. As the Vimification relies heavily on h, j, k, l to navigate around. The user won't want the command input to remain open as they would be inserting, h, j, k, l into the command input. Instead, since the User is a fast typist, they can just ctrl + A and ctrl + C the command input text and quickly navigate to the help page and when they are ready, doing ctrl + v to paste what they previously wrote.

Reason for disagreement: Copying and pasting input may work for some users, but it may not be the most efficient or intuitive workflow for others. We shouldn't assume that the users are willing to put in that much energy and patience to consciously Ctrl+C before leaving our application and we can't assume that they do not need to use Ctrl+C after leaving the application.
I strongly doubt the feasibility of the implementation.

All texts in the command line is gone after a switch of window. Even if the user wants to switch to another window to seek help from user guide on one component of a long command, the original text will be gone. This is making it extremely hard to use for users especially for new users who are not familiar with the commands and have to switch between the interface and the user guide. It is extremely troublesome to keep on retyping the commands.
the product is still usable, however, often cause inconveniences
