I must be a very weird (fedora) developer. I have never done any of
those three things :)

FWIW, I embrace the "EDITOR=nano by default" change so hard that I
need to be careful not to squeeze too hard.

Setting nano as default editor (or installing it on Server Edition) is
the first thing I do on every fresh fedora install. Still, every time
vi(m) opens for some reason, I feel like being thrown into cold water
(or into an exam situation, unprepared) - I still don't know any vi
commands other than :q, :q!, and :wq after more than a decade of using
as my primary OS.

Once a FESCo ticket exists for this Change, it'll have my +1 vote.
