If you want gvim, then just add that to your %packages section of the kickstart config. The kickstart process will automatically find and resolve dependencies for you with %packages --resolvedeps.
Or you could do a minimal install and install packages requested by users via yum install <package> or up2date -i <package>. Both of those will resolve dependencies and install everything needed for you.
