I'm still pondering whether to keep this mode or not. It changes movement commands to extend the existing selection instead of replacing it.

NOTE: It's a bit confusing at the moment because extend hasn't been implemented for all movement commands yet.

TODO: Mappings for selecting syntax nodes (a superset of [).

This layer is similar to vim keybindings as kakoune does not support window.

This layer is a kludge of mappings I had under leader key in neovim.
