I'm concerned that changing the default is unwise because some user's
may be used to it being the default. I always uninstall nano on my
machines. At least ed will quit if you type q which was my first
guess. Nano keystrokes are all a bit strange and it requires a curses
capable terminal.

Any idea if something from /etc/alternatives is appropriate. On my system
editor points to something that requires X which isn't ideal. ex might
be a reasonable choice. Does that exist on a minimal system.
