Would it mean save plus write to disk, or would it mean write what's already 
been saved there to disk?

Right now, the marks are per screen. Do you see the permanent ones as being per 
screen, or just restored to all screens?

Isn't the vim status line always at the bottom (in which case, the BOT command 
would do), or is it that you want to jump to some indented part of that line?

Do we need a way to switch language without having to restart brltty?

How complicated is switching languages? What are all the things you find you 
need to change when doing so?
