[qutebrowser] nvim/nano as editor (was: no subject)

[Florian Bruhin]

Hey Adam,

two meta-things first:

- You aren't subscribed to the list, so your post was held back - I approved it
  and whitelisted you now, but you might want to subscribe to ensure you get
  all replies.

- Please set a subject when writing mails, especially to a mailinglist. There
  are many people who get a lot of mails (as well as mailinglist archives), so
  having a subject is very important to find things.

The problem is that your terminator exits immediately, before you quit your
editor. Thus, qutebrowser thinks that you exited your editor.

Try adding --no-dbus to terminator's arguments so it always starts a new
instance instead of opening your editor as a new window inside the existing
instance.
