I don't know if it'll change anything, but I'd be willing to pay for
such a feature. I don't have that much to spend, but perhaps others
(clay, jonas), would be willing to chime in?

I have one thing to add to the original request, which isn't clear from
either my or clays description. It should be possible to use several
different commands within the mode, not just one multiple times.
