Design change

Revert res-edit to be less "modal" based. There should be one modal paradigm: standard ctrl+XYZ keybindings like nano for all inherently-visible functionality. Hitting ctrl+; opens the command modal for extensions/features that are not inherently visible.

This also restores ctrl+h functionality (currently swallowed by modal handling).
