That can probably be fixed with a message or two to the author.

It claims to work in Vim's "easy mode", which is modeless to make 
it simpler for new users.  I think it also mentioned having menus 
and such, to help GUI-clicky users.  I haven't tried it, but it 
sure sounds like one of the earlier concept descriptions for VO 
Junior.  The biggest difference I see is a slightly different 
file format.

In that priority list for VO Junior, I don't see anything about 
"Junior", the user.  What are the user's priorities?
