Description
Is your feature request related to a problem? Please describe.
Vscodevim default gh mapping to hover doesn't make sense. In both vim and neovim K is used as keywordprg.
Describe the solution you'd like
Change plugin default to have K perform hover
Describe alternatives you've considered
I can add the setting myself
{
"before": [
"K"
],
"commands": [
"editor.action.showHover"
]
},
But this makes no sense to not include this by default. When both nvim and vim support this and K in vsvim does nothing.
