It depends what you're editing.
If it's a config file read by a daemon when started or reloaded, fine.
If it's a config file read by a program every time it launches, the
WYWIWOD editor will end up breaking stuff.
e.g. if I edit rsync.conf and start typing, and meanwhile someone rsyncs
to the box, rsync will fail.
