I don't use Viper myself so take this with a grain of salt.. Have you considered forking viper, instead of having all these modes that run on top of it?  Having many modes that must work in concert with each other introduces a level of complexity that was a large part of why I decided not to use Viper anymore.

Fair question, and fair point about complexity. Forking is usually a last resort. I think it'd be better to get viper-in-more-modes merged into Viper, and to get all the bugs in Vimpulse fixed so that Vimpulse can be merged into Viper too. Then perhaps the Vimpulse maintainers/committers can get commit rights to upstream Viper to make it easier to merge future patches.
