Another thing that people often forget when they use plugins on their development machine is that if they happen to ssh into server (or work on another user's machine), it is unlikely that it will contain the same plugins. It is better to become effective at using the bare vi/vim commands first and only use plugins as a time-saver.

This is true for using plugins in any editor/IDE. Where do you draw the line. Should I use my own `.vimrc` file and set textwidth, formatting-options, indenting, etc. according to my preference, or don't tweak anything at all because those tweaks will not be available at another user's machine/ssh server? It is relatively easy to have your configuration files on a USB/dropbox and copy them on a new machine if needed.
