editors: do you prefer block or caret cursor?

@mustache Usually I'd say caret, but when using vim it's true that the block works better, otherwise actions like `a` look like they skip a character.

I guess my answer comes down to "it depends on the application", which is not very satisfying.

@ayhon In neovim it defaults to a block in normal mode and a line in insert mode. Very intuitive.

@endospore Indeed! I also use neovim and enjoy this behavior a lot
