Why would one file a bugzilla ticket over this?  vi, and the system 
default, is working as intended.  "That's just the way Linux is," say 
the folks having to answer "how to quit vi" for the umpteenth time.

They actually aren't skilled on the cmdline.  At most they'll just 
cut-n-paste something they found on stack overflow.  Instead, GUI git 
frontends are the norm, generally embedded within IDEs.

(FFS most of the folks I work with use the github web frontend to commit 
 things.  Because git is just short for github!)
