it looks like it's tedious to make the behaviour changed in each 
vim-variant, that would be horribly complex code, and worse, have 
undefined behaviour with multiple vim-variants installed.

I've already pushed the decision to use compatible/no-compatible mode 
into debian.vim.

I suppose the debconf bit will move in vim-common.config/postinst. But 
that means that I can't force default to be 'compatible' for 
vim-variant, with a low priority question, and to nocompatible with a 
normal priority to other variants.

so do you think that putting the question to "normal" with defaults 
to "nocompatible" would break the agreement that made vim-tiny enter 
base ?

I feel a bit stuck at this point.
