Insert/textarea mode disabled after page loads

This is really annoying me a lot.  When I load a page, I tend to hit the insert
box I want and just start typing before it is loaded completely, but then it
gets disabled after the page finished loading and all my keypresses go to
closing tabs, scrolling, reloading pages, et al.

It'd be really nice if it was possible to either hit 'dd' to close a tab or if
insert mode is broken, I would have to press escape to get back to normal mode
if the text mode is broken.  Or if I have missed anything in my quest to find a
workaround besides patience, a solution would be good.

Danke,
Minozake

Will be fixed "automatically" in the next version 1.2, because there is
a new :set nofocuscontent option (set to "no" by default).

The most annoying figures are the tab closing (d) and page refreshing (r),
until 1.2 comes out, you could try

:map d <Nop>
:map r <Nop>
:map R <Nop>

then, hit :q to close a tab, <F5> to refresh.

Or simply Ctrl-W to close a tab, and Ctrl-R to refresh.

But this breaks the point of using a MODAL program. You installed
Vimperator to have a modal web browser. Just like in Vim, press ESC
then switch to text-insert mode before typing.

I had this problem when I first started using Vimperator and still
relied on the mouse a bit. Since ditching the mouse, this problem has
gone away as well.

One workaround would be to stop loading the page (ctrl-c) before hitting the
insert box (if the page has already loaded everything you need). That way
the keypresses will go to the right place.
