Unless you use VI, I'd recommend "none". Otherwise, just do the commands
you actually use. As other VIer's find commands missing, they can ask for
them or add them.
As you get closer to 1.0, you can look at what you've got and decide what
might need to be added (at that point) to make abiword a "well rounded"
word processor w/ vi keys.
