I was thinking more about the installation/recuperation process than the daily usage, because it's not always possible to install vim in such cases. That's why I was questioning only vi being in [core], though having vim in [core] would add lots of dependencies, so I guess it's better the way it

Hi, that can be done, sure, however I don't like the idea of having an extra package conflict with a core one. We could name the package nvi, call the binaries nvi and provide a symlink that gets replace on installing vim but all this symlinking stuff has proved itself to be error prone.
