I tried to reproduce your scenario after starting vim as "vim -u NONE"
to ensure that no settings or plugins are affecting the display. I had
to ":set showmode" first (since that is what shows '-- INSERT --', but
after that everything worked as expected. Pressing o at the end of the
file still displayed '-- INSERT --'. Could you give the exact steps to
reproduce this behavior, starting from "vim -u NONE"?
Thanks,
James
