Is your feature request related to a problem? Please describe.
When it VIM keybinding mode, if one want to access the standard VS Code keybinding, one need to toggle the VIM mode toggleVim. But this requires user to toggle it back to re-active the VIM keybinding mode.

Describe the solution you'd like
It will be much more efficient if there is a command to "temporarily" deactivate the VIM keybinding mode, say disableVIMonce, and cause the next key sequences to be processed by normal VS Code keybinding. Once the key sequence translate to a command (matched found) or the chord got interrupted (timeout or invalid sequence), the VIM keybinding should be automatically restored.

Describe alternatives you've considered
None.

Additional context
N/A.
