I'm quite new at Vim and I love it already, but this question just won't let me sleep. Why is it that the cursor doesn't go beyond the last character when in command mode? I find it kind of wierd, and because of that I have to use either a or A to append something to a line (instead of i).
I don't find it weird personally, and I don't think 'a' is any harder to use than i, and you can also use i and then move cursor one char to the right, as well.
