I can't really help you with vimpulse, but note that vimpulse is no
longer actively developed. There's a new project called "Evil" [1]
that supersedes Vimpulse and has much more features but does not build
on viper (and it is configurable in the way you want).

Anyway, because the maintainer of Vimpulse is also the maintainer of
Evil it's probably a good idea to ask your question on evil's mailing
list [2] or in the irc channel #evil-mode on freenode.
