1. Vi mode for MongoDB Shell

   Please enable a 'vi' editing mode for the mongo shell.

   • Similar to vi mode in bash
   • Similar to https://www.npmjs.com/package/mongovi

   A first cut of key bindings would be:

   Basic command mode/editing mode toggling:
   i Insert before cursor
   Esc Toggle to command mode

   Cursor motion keys:
   h Move left
   j Move down
   k Move up
   l Move right

   w Move to next word
   b Move to the beginning of the word

   0 Move to the beginning of the line
   $ Move to the end of the line

   And delete/change:
   x delete next character to the right
   d

   {motion} delete amount specified by {motion}
   c

   {motion} delete amount specified by {motion}
   and also put you in insert mode

2. Support .mongorc.js file

   A core bit of functionality from the original shell is to support reading from the .mongorc.js file in a user's home directory. This feels like core functionality that mongosh should support.

3. Bracket matching and highlighting

   Something which I miss from the legacy shell is bracket matching and highlighting, so I can tell when I have too many brackets, or they're in the wrong order

4. Mongosh connection string thourgh proxy

   Greetings,
   I need to create a proxy host in my environment so that ALL traffic between client <->Mongo Atlas goes through ONE single host.
   Problem is that if I use mongodb+srv://server.example.com/
   It returns me one of 50 endpoints to my Atlas cluster.

   I need something like: connect to this cluster, BUT use this proxy hop server.

5. Control-C to cancel current execution only - without exiting from mongo shell

   when you started some complex query and realized that it could take time - you want to cancel it. if you press Control-C you will be kicked out of mongo shell. so you have to login back and switch to proper database; probably, set all variables again etc.

   there should be option to cancel just current execution leaving you in current session.

   This is available in mongosh 0.13.1+. When you do Ctrl-C, the shell will attempt to cleanly kill the operation on the server and get you back to the prompt right away.

6. Add history search

   Add ability to search through the command history using Cmd/Ctrl+R. It would be nice to also being able to search through the scripts entered with .editor
