I like that idea a lot.  I already use vi keys for my ksh command line 
editing, so if I could get the same kind of thing in my v... err....

I don't think it would be exactly the most trivial thing to give nvi 
vi-command-history, but it's certainly worth doing.  It doesn't use 
-ledit or -lreadline, though I _imagine_ it wouldn't be hard to make just 
":" do that, but history would be more difficult again if you want to 
support multiple windows in nvi with different history.
