Thanks for reminding me of vi. As I understand it (I'm afraid I've never seen the point of knowing much about vi :-) the model vi uses is quite different -- "lean and mean", a model suited to the early days of computing with low-powered 24x80 terminals, vs. Emacs's "live-inside" model. People who use it seem to slip in and out of it (for example, to do things like using the shell), rather than doing everything inside it. I surmise vi has no shell mode, and thus you'd need something else, something like readline, to provide that support. A good point.
