Playing with vim-full a bit more I realized that only one GUI could be
compiled in. Sorry, this was not clear to me: I assumed that there was
possible to pass command line options to decide which GUI to run.

Thus, what I'm proposing for sarge is:
- vim-full variant with support for gnome GUI and all interpreters

I built the package, a comparison of sizes (on amd64) follows:

.deb size installed size RSS
vim-python 804872 1724 6708
vim-full 835316 1792 9660

For post-sarge I think that something similar could be still
interesting. Indeed is possible that people want support for all
interpreters on all possible GUIs, but gnome is likely to be the most
widespread one.

I can commit may changes if accepted.

Cheers.
