Thanks.
I'll add these ideas to my list.

An idea I had recently was some sort of mild encryption option
(rot-13?) for ed, so I could keep sensitive files in a state where
spyware, viruses, etc. would find it difficult to
read or search the file, but when I use ed, I could easily 
display/edit the file, without having to remember or type any 
password.
