Are you sure this will work? I just ran a test, and putting a new
config file inside /usr/lib/environment.d only works for Gnome, and
doesn't work for Mate, Cinnamon or SSH (tested by opening a terminal
in the respective session and examining the environment variables).
From what I gather in [1], systemd is not a standard way of
interacting with the user's environment variables, and only Gnome has
decided to use it. So this method of implementing this change seems
to be making the default editor for Gnome be nano and not changing
the defaults for anyone else.
Erm... well, no. Plan foiled?
The goal of using /usr/lib/environment.d was to avoid setting more
environment variables in random places in various shell scripts. But if
that only works in GNOME, I guess it's not a great solution after all.
