About C-g, ESC and restoring the default cursor-type when exiting boon-mode from INSERT mode

[Ikuyu]

Great package. Keep up the good work!

I have two question though:

1. How can I use C-g to leave INSERT mode without affecting the global use of C-g?
2. How can I revert the ESC key to its default behaviour?

Obviously I don't want to use ESC but C-g to leave INSERT mode.

Below is probably a bug that I'd like to see fixed:

If one is in INSERT mode and executes 'boon-mode' using M-x, the cursor-type is not restored to my global setting:

(setq-default cursor-type 'box).

For the cursor types, they can be set with the variables boon-*-cursor-type. I remember having problems rebinding C-g so I decided to leave it alone. But could you try setting boon-quit-key to C-g and see if you get the desired effect?

After trying a bit, this works:

(use-package boon
:config
(require 'boon-qwerty)
(require 'boon-powerline)
(boon-powerline-theme)
:bind
(:map boon-insert-map
("C-g" . (lambda ()
(interactive)
(setq boon-command-state t))))
(:map boon-special-map
("C-g" . (lambda ()
(interactive)
(setq boon-command-state t)))))
