Please add support for /usr/bin/editor on Debian

[mitya57]

In Debian, we have a system called alternatives which allows the user to select the default applications for several tasks, including the editor. This system provides an /usr/bin/editor symlink pointing to user's command-line editor of choice. It would be nice if you could add support for this.

Our Policy recommends the following algorithm:

Thus, every program that launches an editor or pager must use the EDITOR or PAGER environment variable to determine the editor or pager the user wishes to use. If these variables are not set, the programs /usr/bin/editor and /usr/bin/pager should be used, respectively.
