Is vi still the default? On Debian it sure isn't, nano is the default and has been for years, and I can only assume the debian derivatives have all followed suit. That'd already be most new installs taken care of.

If you find something that opens vi unexpectedly, double-check $EDITOR's value then file a bug report and tell them to follow $EDITOR.

Just to add to that some programs also use their own variable like GIT_EDITOR, SVN_EDITOR,...
