Hmm, this may be possible, but my guess is that it would be more work 
than simply implemented a vi keybinding personality because a fair 
amount of Wing's code is tailored to the specific quirks of our 
scintilla based editor component.  It also would only work on Linux 
unless the bonobo library stack was ported to Windows.
