I use both emacs and vim. We solved this for me with emacs .editorconf
file_type_emacs.

The vim plugin doesn't have an equivalent, however, the documentation
suggest vim_filetype, but you need to add
to .vimrc:

function! FiletypeHook(config)
    if has_key(a:config, 'vim_filetype')
        let &filetype = a:config['vim_filetype']
    endif

    return 0   " Return 0 to show no error happened
endfunction

call editorconfig#AddNewHook(function('FiletypeHook'))

I think this is a better solution than having to add modelines
everywhere, what do you think?
