Then, you could build various frontends to handle these in a user friendly way if you like. But also, would be accessible and editable in your favorite text editor.

Personally, I NOP-ed all arrow keys _and_ hjkl also, after I found myself keeping j pressed to get to an area at the bottom of the window. Which would be an L. Then NOP-ed, bit by bit, many other things which could be done faster. 90% of my movements are search, BWtf{} and some scrolling with zt zz zb. The only case I found the lack of hjkl problematic so far is in block visual mode.

Another anti-pattern I did was Da and dWi, NOP-ed them and forced myself to start using C and cW respectively. Not much of an achievement, but feels better :) Same for x, I deleted whole words with x, then pressed i, I removed the mapping of x.

Conclusion: in case you think you have an anti-pattern, just NOP the mappings. In case one or two turns out to be too much of restriction, you could always remove the NOP mapping later.

I started combining {} with zt zz zb. I feel like it mimics physical handling of a scroll. This requires some empty lines though. In case I work with dense text, I usually switch to H/M/L also (combined with zt zz zb).

I have to mention that for navigation purposes, f/F is only useful with ;, otherwise you could find yourself looking through the line for a suitable character which slows you down. With ; it's enough to pick a "rare" character on the line which is near to/in the desired object.

Next to c2f, ci" (and ci) etc) could be really useful when you end up being in the middle of a string literal and just want to change the whole thing. Or in the middle of an expression in parens - http://fuckyeahvim.tumblr.com/image/122373002741

ct" or even ci" (or ci) ci] etc) is really useful to reset the inner contents of text delimited by ")] etc.. I use these a lot - http://fuckyeahvim.tumblr.com/image/122372862496

In FastMail you could already search based on some of the email headers, like from:thatpurplecompany.com (or has:attachment, https://www.fastmail.fm/help/receive/search.html) and then you could save the search.. It's visually not that rich, but it solves your problem.

Tagging (for me) is more about ad-hoc grouping. As giving it a thought right now it's even hard for me to come up with a realistic use case.

I've been using it for 1.5 yrs now, they're pretty good. Switched from Gmail. They don't have a calendar yet (it's on their stack though).

Makes sense. It could be difficult to raise money for prevention and rehabilitation purposes from the tax approach. Although maybe wealthy recreational users would happily "fund" the education / rehabilitation of the poor. Or maybe I'm just completely wrong here :D

I agree with the other points you've discussed.
