A more sensible approach would be for the ebuild to check which ebuild
satisfies the virtual/editor dependency and set that.

Not clever. What if there are several editors installed?

And, yes, I prefer VIM. And I don't like when the package which
vanilla defaults were always to be using vim as editor is overwritten
without any notifications and causing the enduser to investigate
how to fix that.
