IDE functionalities deactivated by Vim

hvor mye er deaktivert/ufordel i Webstorm/VSCode når du har på Vim plugin?

IDE's multi-select with Ctrl D doesn't work with entering insert mode using eg. using a
but c works
Annoying to save file that is edited in commit changes window
- if in normal mode, pressing "Esc" will exit "commit changes"-window
- unlike when terminal is focused, you can't disable the "Esc-> focus normal file view"
~~paste from OS registry (copy paste from UI app into Webstorm in IdeaVim)~~ Kan fikses ved å registrere ctrl C og ctrl V som IDE-shortcuts (se https://useful-snippets.netlify.app/posts/webstorm-ideavim-shortcut-settings/)
vim search not as good as built-in search
- vim won't highlight/preview as you search/replace
- to activate built-in search you would have to give up ctrl F and ctrl H to IDE
