Not criticism, just bemused: why would those be (more) annoying
when editing prose than when editing code? I can see if a line
continues beyond the right edge of the window, and distinguish
between end-of-file and a possible multitude of blank lines,
which I find equally meaningful with both kinds of editing. Sure
it's not what one may be used to from one's run-of-the-mill GUI
editor, but then almost nothing in Vim is!
