If I were to rewrite vim I would want to avoid C/C++ and all their warts. A Rust text-editor with guaranteed memory safety would be cool.

Your OS is written in C/C++. When you know what you are doing, these languages are not harmful.

Yeah, and every third boot my display manager segfaults :P

I know it's possible to write good systems software in C/C++, I just think writing in Rust is a marked improvement.
