I'm not opposed to this solution, but I probably wouldn't use it myself. I wonder if it would be sufficient to just say "here are some sensible vim options", coupled with human-readable instructions for how to integrate them into your .vimrc, along with some path-selection. It's perhaps not quite as turnkey. On the other hand, it's easy for people who are even moderate vim users to understand what each line does. In the plugin solution, there are more lines dedicated to loading the config than there are actual config lines.

The actual policy logic is sufficiently complex that I hope people will be able to contribute back small fixes. -Peff
