Most "emacs|vi|...ish" requests are really about:

"I would like to
- move around my code structures
  - package, class, method, sub-expressions, hierarchy, senders..
- finding or selecting elements, grouping elements, etc.
- operating on my found, grouped, or selected elements
- with keyboard fluidity and minimal distraction
- (preferably) using familiar keyboard shortcuts".

Few want literally single text-file editing of a class (or package, or image 
:-)
