> What kind of feedback exactly would you expect from it?

I don't know exactly; this is one of those things where I'd have to implement some things and play around to see what works. Something like some text popping up maybe? I don't know. More advanced users can always just disable these sort of things (I also set up my Vim to not show "-- INSERT --" because at this point it's never helpful for me and it looks a bit nicer this way, but obviously for loads of people it's a very helpful thing).
