(OK, I admit: I found --edit
to be more useful than I thought! :) )
I knew about VISUAL but honestly thought this was a relic. If some people use it, I’ll implement it without hesitation.
I believe it's newer than EDITOR!

For example, I have
EDITOR=emacsclient
so that it works when I have a tty login, and I haveVISUAL=emacsclient -c
, i.e. "open in a new window", for when I have an X (or X-tunnelling) login.
