In order to support building iamb, I would like to have a library that helps building modal editing interfaces. To start with, I need a component that can help map keyboard input to actions to take. It needs to support the following high-level features:
Multiple modes where input is interpreted differently, so that I can have a Normal mode, an Insert mode, and so on
Support for prefixing input with counts (1234), registers ("A) and more
Support for building pseudo-modes like operation-pending mode, so that common suffixes can be created for operations like d and y
Support for handling unmapped keys so that Insert mode can just type
Support for fetching the current mode so that the user interface can tell the user what mode they're in
