I use a terminal with tabs (gnome-terminal). I don't want to open a new terminal when I want to edit a file but either use my existing tab or open a new tab. I don't want to see my applications menu full of aptitude, info, mc, nano, w3m, etc. I think it's worth mentioning that a large percentage of Debian users already do not see vim.desktop. Handling this in vim directly seems to make more sense to me than in a separate .desktop that most people don't even know exists (the GNOME blacklist). https://qa.debian.org/popcon-graph.php?packages=kde-plasma-desktop%2C+gnome-core%2C+xfce4%2C+cinnamon%2C+mate-desktop-environment-core%2C+e17%2C+lxde%2C+lxqt%2C+budgie-core&show_installed=on&want_legend=on&want_ticks=on&from_date=&to_date=&hlght_date=&date_fmt=%25Y-%25m&beenhere=1 Thanks, Jeremy Bicha
