VIM MODE in ZSH doesnt seem to work at all through the powerline-daemon. #6

I have the powerline and powerline-daemon trees in my local folder, have run setup.py install on both, installed the executable daemon/client in to the executable path for powerline, the powerline module is in python3.3, and when I run powerline-daemon it works flawlessly, and very fast, and as expected except for one item, when I don't use the daemon I have access to the zsh vim-mode label (INSERT/COMMAND/etc...) but when the daemon is running I just get the blue-user label and then the path, with out the zsh vim mode prefix. Unfortunately I don't have a proposed fix or know which files are responsible for this as my python skills are pretty low, but I am very interested in running the vim-mode label in my zsh sessions (with the daemon), and would like to know if it should work and I need to configure something or might this be 'fixed' later down the road.

I have played with the powerline-daemon some more and it seems that the daemon doesnt seem to respect $_POWERLINE_MODE like POWERLINE_COMMAND=powerline does. When I get some time I will look at the daemon to see if I can figure it out. Let me know if you have any ideas.

not an issue anymore, powerline has integrated the daemon, and using https://github.com/powerline/powerline takes care of this issue.
