I agree, that making yet another editor looks like more balkanization. I already use kate most of the time as starting up gvim in KDE takes a lot of time and editing large files makes a lot of probs. The only thing missing in Kate is the ex-functionality, kind of integrated sed being able to address ranges and complicated regex. That's what I use vim for and this already existed in the initial vi. I had also lots of trouble with kvim in my weired setup, but it is just a pity to start the whole gnome-bazar to be able to have a nice-looking vi. And no, I can't maintain it, as I'm not a programmer nor do I have sufficient time. So I was just looking for a qt-GUI for vi. But it seems that editor-maintainers are more attracted by gnome.
