Describe the Feature you'd like

I use the Electron/Obsidian VIM mode. Metabind seems to use it's own input mechanism, so doesn't cater for the VIM editing goodness.

VIM mode uses a different (thicker) cursor to differentiate between input and normal mode.

If you go into a Metabind text field while in VIM normal mode there is no cursor shown even though you can enter data. To see the cursor you have to click out of the metabind field, go into VIM insert mode then click back into the metabind text field.

I don't suppose there is enough VIM usage to warrant full VIM mode support (although that would be fantastic), but it would be helpful to always be able to see a cursor if the metabind field can accept input.

Thanks.
