 Status:       patch (code needs review)

I'd -1 this. I don't use vi to code Drupal, and I'm sure a lot of other
people are using something entirely different as well. Allowing this
patch would allow the horde to say "oooh, oOh, add this line for MY
favorite text editor too!" - when would it stop? Best not to move
Drupal into this political territory.

Vim can be instructed to set special settings. The line added by this
patch tells vim that the file type is php, tab and 'shiftwidth' size is
2 characters and to expand tabs with spaces.
