It feels like atom-vim-mode-plus is sometimes ignoring my escape keypress when I type fast.
I think it is because escape is ignored if shift is held down.
In Vim and in terminal vi , the escape key returns to command mode even if shift is held down.
After 25 years of vi-ing, my brain is not capable of adjusting :)

I have this problem every time I want to comment out a few lines of code by inserting a # at the start of the line.

I start with this:

    fo[o]
    bar

I do: 0 , i , shift-down , # , escape , j , i , shift-down , # , escape , j .

I expect to get this:

#    foo
#    bar
[]

But if the shift-up happens after the escape then I get this:

#ji#j[]    foo
    bar
