Accessing vim from ssh is a definitely a benefit for those who use it; especially with GNU Screen since you can suspend, resume or even share a terminal session with someone else.)

I do like sublime text when I'm working with others, so they can take the driver's seat from time to time. But when I'm working alone, I stay in the terminal because screen+vim allows me to stay in a single environment for all of my work.

The SFTP plugin for Sublime allows me to operate on remote files via ssh/sftp quite easily. Set up a local directory with a simple config file with the remote server and file path, and it takes care of the rest. When opening a file, it will automatically sync it down from the server, and when I save the file, it automatically pushes it back up to the server so I can immediately test it from there. And because I keep a dedicated terminal session up, it's a simple alt-tab to switch over and test my changes.

The best of both worlds, if you will.

You know you can use Vim to edit remote files locally, right? Or use it from any graphical FTP client?

If I'm going to run my editor locally, why not use something that's better fitted to running in a graphical context, rather than something limited to the terminal?

I use both GVim/MacVim and CLI Vim in exactly the same way.
