I hope this gets merged in soon. I love the bash vi mode and I love the 
realtime mode indicator that we now have with show-mode-in-prompt. If I could 
customize that portion of my command line I could add that portion of the 
prompt in a much more stylized way. If I could make the color change and make 
it say "insert", "visual", and "normal" as the mode changes, that would be 
pretty cool.
