I'm not quite sure that I have the last word here, so I'll just reply

This changes over time and I do not bother remember this. I just
run rpmbuild --bp, and it tells what packages it needs. Maybe you
want to mention that it's ok to run rpmbuild, see what falls out?
For example, it's likely that we'll require sparse just as soon
as the Core+Extras merge happens.

I see you applied Chuck's suggestion. I would mention also that
vi specifically is the most notable exception. You have to break
links before editing with vi.
