Yes, IIRC a vanilla Edgy install would carry vim-tiny instead of vim-full (or any of the other vim-variants.) <sarc>First, they removed Emacs, and now they cripple vim!

The update-alternatives shouldn't really be necessary IIRC since update-alternatives is run after vim-full (thanks to common runtime code in the vim-variant helpers; see vim-7.0/debian/rules for the full story.)
