What happened?

I use VIM mode and the Jupyter Interactive Window, but there are some conflicts in the text area of the interactive window:

• The <UP> arrow does not work to get the previous cells content.

  • Neither does k when in VIM normal mode, as would also be expected.

• The <ESC> key, used to go in VIM normal mode, clears the input area.

  • This is the same behavior than without VIM, although even there I would prefer that it does not clears the input area
  • It is annoying to lost my input by inadvertently pressing <ESC>, which occurs often when using VIM.
  • The VIM modes are available in that input area: <Ctrl-C> (or other custom mapping) still works to go in VIM normal mode.
