Isn't that just a macro program? I guess something like that could be a start, although something context-aware would be nicer.

Honestly, it would be a lot easier to do in the unix space if there weren't so many competing toolkits.

I really wish that Qt, GTK, and others had a common underlying language like postscript.

Oh, I use that every single day. Have for over two decades.

I was thinking more about futzing around for the end key or cursor keys when trying to edit a URL in firefox's location bar, stuff like that. GUI stuff.

I will so often copy a paragraph I'm editing somewhere, paste it into a new nvim window, edit it comfortably, and then copy and paste it back into whichever program I'm using.

Something like an omniscient text-aware vi editing mode would be amazing, too. ;)
