Lynx does not use vim as the default editor

Description

On linux.org.ru forum, it has been reported that Lynx is unusable for adding comments to that forum. This stems from a bug in its built-in editor that corrupts TEXTAREA contents in UTF-8 locales. A workaround is to use an external editor to edit TEXTAREA elements, but on the LiveCD, the default editor is not set in /etc/lynx.cfg.
