A system without a working editor isn't fully functional. Yes, I know real men can write just about anything in bash, and heroes can probably write a functional editor with a simple here document, but adding vim to the boot build for 1.1 would be nice - it cross-compiles OK with Joe's 2.0 patch, although in my experience it only works like vi (so, it might need an /etc/vimrc or similar). Oh, and _fully_ functional usually means a bit of cblfs (ssh or nfs, for example). Where should we draw the line ?
