Re: [PATCH] editor: only save (and restore) the terminal if using a tty

Johannes Schindelin [off-list ref] writes:

Maybe a better approach would be to hide the `save_term()` dance behind a
new config option, and then have it turned on automatically if the
`editor` _happens_ to be `vi` or `vim`.

Why 'vi' and 'vim' are so special?  Is this an attempt to paper over
a bug in 'vim' on the caller side?

That would help the problem reported in the Windows Terminal project.
