While VSCode is great, it's also useless as $EDITOR. It's very slow to start (when it's already running), and while you'd think you could speed this up by making it open a new tab in your current window and and return control the parent process when you close that tab ("code -r -w", I believe), that's not possible. It can open the new tab, but it never relinquishes control, at least not for me. Wouldn't be an issue if startup was super fast with "code -w", but creating new windows, even when VSCode is running, takes several seconds. So I still use "joe" as $EDITOR.
