How do you "copy all"?
I agree that ggVG is fine but not with the custom leader to copy to clipboard part. If you're gonna have to remember something might as well use a text object instead, that way you get the full range of actions and not just the hardcoded mapping. I use kana/vim-textobj-entire that provides e for entire buffer, so copying would be yie and life is smooth. There's a bunch of text object plugins, just get one or write it yourself would be my advice.
- Installing argtextobj.vim

Select all and move cursor back
You should make your life easier and get the entire text object plugin. This is the easiest way to act one the entire buffer with no surprises, although it still does change the cusror position sometimes, but I still recommend it.

I now use entire text object for this with vie, which is more mentally coherent, for me, than ggVG.

Had my 7 year old doing spelling words on VIM. Since she has not done much text editing it was effortless to get her thinking in "modes."

How can I return to the last cursor position after using formatprg and gggqG?
I would suggest adding the text object "entire", either by making your own omap, or using a plugin like vim-textobj-entire.
