    Unexpected side benefit: this is teaching more about the ES6 module and class stuff that I haven't gotten around to using up on. Will be very useful on my next large-scale JS proje…

    Mode feedback is the only thing I can think of, especially when you're getting used to the keyboard and/or have mode toggles set up. I don't have much use for my keyboard screens p…
