Dear Maintainer,

I have run into several issues where nano is brought up even if
my prefered editor is set to vim, I suspected the env var EDITOR had
something to do with it as when I echoed it, it always reported nano.

after configuring my .bashrc file to print the EDITOR variable as it was
loaded, it reported it being vim the whole time, until I tested by
echoing it myself, and it again reported back nano.

testing with another terminal (gnome-terminal), it reports correctly
that $EDITOR is correctly vim, spawning a new bash process after the one
the terminal start also reports back vim.

after uninstalling vim, programs calling the $EDITOR still try to launch
nano (mutt, and reportbug).

This is not critical, but I think it should be fixed whenever possible
as this took me around an hour to figure out it was the terminal's
fault, and not bashes or mine, it detracts from the user experience.
