--- Comment #4 from Heiko Tietze <tietze.heiko@gmail.com> ---
Apple has no Insert key and apparently no overtype mode. Microsoft provides an
option in a configuration dialog to toggle insert/override.
We could implement a key additional to KEY_INSERT at editeng.cxx #1259.
Checking the world wide wisdom I'd say FN+Enter is the most often cited variant
(FN+backspace is the common delete, so it's somewhat natural). However, this
key would be hard-coded and wont be customizable. And to raise the difficulty
we do not have a function key defined yet (think it's possible when we restrict
it to macOS).
(Adding UX although it's a qualified easyhack to gather input. If a volunteer
wants to take this we can just go ahead.)
