GNU Emacs has something like that in Dired. It's called Wdired (writable dired) and allows editing the Dired buffer and then applies the changes. Think of it as editing `ls` output.

`vidir` uses the EDITOR variable, so if you set it to emacs you can use with it:

    EDITOR=emacs vidir .

AWESOME. I didn't know that, but it makes sense and is very unixy.
