	1) gvim lacks a lot of features ( italic for exemple)
	2) gvim is unmaintained ( barely maintained by non-gtk people trying to
understand what the porting guy has done)
 	3) gvim needs the gtk libs, something not all kde users want to
have 	4) kvim will integrates within the kde framework, it's very important
for an end-user.
	5) most important : kvim will be a kpart, meaning a embeddable
component that any kde application can user. gvim does not offer this.
