  IMHO I think that vi(m) is good for text editing, but I could add
some more as joe, emacs, nano, MC, etc. All of them are simple (well,
perhaps not emacs xD ) and for "simple" text editing could be good.
Nowdaways all text editors have a GUI interface to work with so I
don't think it could be a barrier to not to include them in base. In
the other hand, we want a simple text editor in base, not a
big-monster-text editor (the user can install it later, if needed).

  I hope my opinion will be clear enought to you.

Have a good day ;)
