No experience with plugins, but just this in .vimrc does it for me:

noremap <F1> :call Rnu_toggle()<CR> " Toggle relative line numbering.
"
" Toggle relative line numbering.
function! Rnu_toggle()
if &rnu == 1
set nornu
else
set rnu
endif
endfun

Someone on another list needed it for absolute line numbers - took out
the 'r' in each set, and he was good to go.

And, yes, using vim here in mutt, it's available too - after all vim
reads the same .vimrc when run here.

Relative line numbering really shines when you do "d3+" or "y3+" - just
read the relative line number of the line you want to reach - no
counting, and no need to subtract one. Ah, it's the same with "3j" -
works the same as "3+", I see.
