Pushed with some mostly-cosmetic fiddling.
One thing I changed that wasn't cosmetic is that as you had it,
the behavior of "\e file" varied depending on whether the query
buffer had been empty, which surely seems like a bad idea.
I made it do discard_on_quit always in that case. I think there
might be a case for discard_on_quit = false always, ie maybe
the user wanted to load the file into the query buffer as-is.
But it seems like a pretty weak case --- you'd be more likely
to just use \i for that situation.
