I.e. when I hit `:` and begin typing an ex command, it'd be great if the airline indicator mode changed. It still says normal when I am in fact in command mode, for instance. \r\n\r\nLooking at the code, it looks like the [`check_mode`](https://github.com/bling/vim-airline/blob/master/autoload/airline.vim#L134) function is where this is done, and I don't see an option for command mode. Looking at `:help mode()`, however, suggests a string is returned for command mode, which makes me think it is possible. \r\n\r\nDoes airline already support this? Am I missing an option somewhere?"}}
