Yes, that's what I meant.  Vi should _not_ forcibly resize the window
back to what it was before the shell escape; rather, after the user
exits the subshell, vi should become aware of the window size change (as
it would if one resized the window while editing).  One can
work around this by resizing the window just a bit after returning
from a shell escape (which vi will pick up), but having to do that is IMO
quite annoying.

At least some of the clones I've used (like vim) handle this properly.
