Are you claiming that if you issue the command "export EDITOR=pico"
(assuming bash; modify as necessary for your shell) and then run
sensible-editor that it doesn't start pico (assuming VISUAL is not set)?
If so, I'm astonished, because I've just set EDITOR to a variety of
things and it worked just fine.
If you are not so claiming, then please stop writing "sensible-editor
doesn't support pico". It supports it just fine.

I agree. But please stop posting misleading statements.
