Changed "edition" to "insert"; Vim has no "edition mode" and from the context it appears the author meant "insert mode"

vim customized with emacs commands (editioninsert mode only)

I was an emacs user, and I have to switch to vim. But I miss some basic emacs commands in vim editioninsert mode:

  1. C-A
  2. C-E
  3. C-K
  4. C-Y
  5. C-x C-s
  6. ... and some other

I know that I can press Escape and then press some of the following keys and finally press key i:

  1. ^
  2. $
  3. d$
  4. p
  5. :w [Enter]
  6. ...

However I will like to stay in vim editioninsert mode and avoid pressing Escape/i keys.

On the web, I have found customizations for emacs (vi-mode, vip, viper, vimpulse, vim-mode, evil). But not yet found the opposite: customize vim to use emacs commands...

I am interested about the emacs commands in vim editioninsert mode only. Just some basic commands, as bash commands: C-A, C-E, C-K, C-Y, C-U... (yep C-U is not a default emacs command but I like it too).
