I've used vim, pretty heavily customized, for almost a decade now. It seems to me perfect, and if not perfect, I just change it so it's perfect.

I've been using pathogen for a while for plugins..

I will happily give 8.0 a try, but I have never used such perfect software such as vim (and I also don't follow its dev cycle at all) I am really, really surprised a new version came out. I figured I'd be using the same vim until keyboards were completely out of style.
