improving Vim - Kickstarter - brainstorming - goals - who wants to join?

Yes! I'd contribute to a Kickstarter campaign for enhancing ViM.
* true async support in the core. Remove notions of updatetime since everything will be async
* remove backwards compatibility to Vi. I'm assuming that vi backwards compatibility is hard to maintain? At the very least make nocompatible the default
* replace cryptic one letter options like coptions
* integrate popular plugins into the core: syntastic, ctrlp, nerdtree, etc
* ability to renumber buffer numbers. This enhancement alone I would pay for.
* concept of window-local buffers and tab-local buffers
* similar to window location list, a window header list that sits on top of the window. Plugins like bufexplorer could show window local buffers in this header
