I also agree that "vi" should work as it did. I've been using ubuntu since hoary, and to my recollection the arrow keys have always worked as I have expected (and, I've used a large number of distributions since '99, and don't remember any of them shipping by default w/out intuitive arrow key mappings). If power users need vi to work "properly", then they can make a .virc (or whatever). For regular users, vi should work as intuitively would be expected regarding arrow keys in edit mode. Please revert.
