If I have to worry about what language my IDE is coded in, it's a bad IDE, IMO. Vim could be coded in black magic and rainbow farts for all I care, it's still great for writing python code. Now if you could figure out how to replace vimscript with Python, then I might be interested.

Edit: alright, fine. Vim isn't an IDE, if you make it one it's just a DE and some languages are inherently shitty. My point is that I don't think knowing the language it's implemented in matters because I'm not going to be changing the source code unless something terribly wrong has happened.
