[Vimperator] Suggestions for keyboard shortcuts

[Erik Falor]

First, let me say that Vimperator is the most brilliant Firefox extension
ever conceived by man.  Bravo!

In the interest of providing a more seamless Vim-to-Vimperator transition, I
propose the following changes:

In Vim's insert mode (and many readline-based text interfaces such as Bash)
the keystroke <C-u> deletes all text to the left of the cursor.
Likewise, <C-w> deletes the whitespace-delimited word to the left of the
cursor.

Currently, Firefox interprets <C-u> as "View Source", and <C-w> as "Close
Window".  Needless to say, that causes some problems.

Instead of retraining my Vim muscles, I'd like to see those mappings
introduced to Vimperator.  What do you guys think about it?

One more mapping that I think is appropriate: instead of using the
Vimperator Normal mode command 'R' to refresh the screen, I would propose
using Vim's own redraw screen command <C-l>.
