Hi,

just one security question/suggestion

after my feeling using ~/.viminfo should per default be disabled for the
_root_ user as if vim were called: "vim -i NONE"

There should be no not controlled information leaved on the disk. In most
cases (quick editing) the user does not care about .viminfo. He does not
realize it was written also.

Regards
