We will *never* include vim instead of nano, simple because *everybody* can use 
nano, which many people have no fscking clue how to use vim. I've been a linux 
user for almost 8 years, and I've never learned how to use vim. We also will not 
include *both* packages, because that would bloat the stages unnecessarily.

Just because you prefer vim instead of nano doesn't mean we should use it. There 
are many aspects of the release where somebody thinks that *their* preference is 
the correct one. It usually isn't :P
