Actually, it probably won't be that simple.  Whereas in emacs mode, we
can probably rely on these bindings being added to the correct keymap,
namely 'emacs_standard_keymap', when in vi mode it's likely that these
bindings would end up in the wrong keymap, namely 'vi_movement_keymap'.

When in vi mode, these mappings should be added to
'vi_insertion_keymap', and that probably involves using
'rl_bind_key_in_map' instead of 'rl_bind_key'.
