Isn't our vi(1) actually nvi? If so, shouldn't feature additions=20
like this go through the original authors?

Imho, adding features to vi(1) is not appropriate. If you want a=20
more featureful vi-like editor, use pkgsrc/editors/vim. As it=20
stands, nvi is a (nearly) bug-for-bug copy of real (encumbered)
vi(1).
