I'm not familiar with vr-mode, but a quick glance at at vr.el on sourceforge
shows it to be a minor mode. There are a few ways of combining major modes
as well (two-mode-mode, mmm-mode, mumamo).

Eric, I don't have a good readily available solution to what you're trying
to do, but it seems to me that it would be worth your time to get
comfortable with elisp, and how it's used in emacs. The emacs documentation
is pretty good, even if you don't know lisp, and I think it would be one of
the easiest languages to integrate well with voice recognition. I don't
think you would need to touch what is commonly referred to as emacs
internals to do what you want. There's a good chance that you'd be able to
greatly improve emacs voice-recognition support pretty easily in a month or
twos time.
