>  "Hurray, I found a bug in Geany, could you add a few more bugs like this one please?").

True, but "currently vim mode is very broken" and "I am just reporting there are too many vim broken functions to be usable." and implications that character driven mode not working like vim means its not usable, are not helpful comments about a tool with a completely different UI paradigm.  

If there were more things broken in the plugin then describing them like the initial part of report is helpful, but generally being negative is not.  Even if you don't personally mind it is not something that is acceptable in Geany in general and in the Geany-plugins repo especially, because its shared by many contributors and some people might mind, and observers seeing negativity unchallenged may think its ok to repeat such behaviour.  

But even the initial report was missing details that needed to be further teased out to make it clear how vim worked differently from Geany, after all if such detail had been completely obvious from minimal vim use or its manual you would have done it. :smile: 

This was back in February, now you are available again I won't need to ask for PRs any more.
