These days there's very little need for ^S/^Q for flow control. Serial
links usually use hardware flow control and network links have it as
part of TCP, so unless there are still people around who are using
something like 3-wire RS-232 there's no reason not to disable ^S/^Q
flow control while running Vim. I've certainly never had any problem
treating them as ordinary characters.
