I don't understand this kind of ideas, usability by making tings a pain
in the ass! I just don't get it.

I dont think the configuration dialogs should be bloated, but things
should still be easy to do. And by trying to keep the user from being
able to change a option like editor you are trying to force the user to
work in a way you have planed. This is not the correct way to look at
things, just keep it simple and let the user have it's freedom (and that
includes the freedom to get stuck in vim, if that what the user have
asked for...)
