Emacs and vim do this out of the box

Vim does not do this "out of the box".

Yes, I use this a lot.

One problem though is that sometimes I have a sub-folder with lots of (unrelated) files and Vim starts searching it, thereby basically hanging the editor without a possibility to stop the operation.
