I would start out with suffixed or renamed binaries. I use `nvim` in the same

That would have `vim-classic` available in Fedora; and doesn't require you to
solve the harder problems (yet).
Agreed. If you wanted to have a swappable /usr/bin/vim, the best
solution would be to work with the vim and neovim maintainers to
implement something like
https://forge.fedoraproject.org/packaging/guidelines/issues/1440 (as
opposed to the alternatives mechanism), but that shouldn't be necessary
for the first iteration, and it'd be best to prioritize getting the
parallel-installable suffixed binaries into the distribution first.
