put vim in insert mode automatically

[ri-aje]

I found most of the time when I invoke vim-anywhere, I need to type something right away, so I think it makes sense to put vim in insert mode automatically to save one keystroke. the change should be real simple with +startinsert option on vim invocation.

I would imagine this is a subjective preference, however the ability to customise commandline arguments would be useful as it is much more general and configurable. Might be useful for use cases such as the above, or setting a default file type, or pasting text from the clipboard, or probably others

I don't have a command in my vimrc for starting in insert mode, because I don't usually want this. But in this case, where I intentionally open an empty buffer to write something, it would be nice to just start typing instead of entering insert mode (even though it is just one single press).
