Better default bindings for exiting insert mode #11709
Description
When experimenting with the default keybindings for helix, I was disappointed to find that <Esc> seemed to be the only builtin keybinding for exiting insert mode.
Due to the inconvenient placement of the escape key on most modern keyboards, almost all users of modal editors need to add a more ergonomic keybinding for <Esc> to their configuration. Whenever I use vim on an unfamiliar system, I always have to run :imap jk <Esc> to be productive.
Since one of the focuses of Helix is modern sensible defaults, it might be worthwhile to add some of the more common keybindings for exiting insert mode to helix. For example, jk orii
Vim also supports using ctrl-c to exit insert mode by default, which I find quicker to use than escape.
jk is my personal favorite way to exit insert mode, but anything that is more convenient than <Esc> would be nice to have as a default binding.
