BTW, I'll yell like hell if anything is converted to using libedit and
the vi mode behavior of the program changes.

What pisses me off the most about the vi behavor in /bin/sh is:
    /bin/sh
    $ set -o vi
    $ ls
    $ <esc>kA<backspace>

produce a beep rather than performing the backspace.
Also don't forget libreadline reads ~/.inputrc.  Simular functionality
should be provided.
