'go <arrow keys>' conflicts with generic_editor 'go left/right/up/down'

See original GitHub issue

This is really only a problem if the edit actions are overridden, but one might want to do so for vim

The approach we landed on during the grooming session today was to

  • have go <user.arrow_keys> map to edit.direction in generic editor (pressing the arrow keys as many times as was chained),
  • but then have a separate command press <user.unmodified_key> which can be used to directly press the specific key such as up or down
