I think it's good because it keep= s > config file clean, but people may think otherwise. Ahh, thanks. But when I said "let's admit that this is just fixing an UI mistake, no configuration, no options", I really meant it. Without the backward compatiblity "For now please do not fix this bug for me and keep being buggy until I get used to the non-buggy behaviour" fuss, which we never= do to any bugfix. That is how we are planning to handle "git merge" update to spawn edito= r in interactive session in the next release. There is no "Please keep th= e buggy behaviour" option; only an environment variable to help when we mistake a scripted use as interactive, whose support is not going away because it is not about "until I get used to the new behaviour".
