Aakin's search turned up 7 that look like real contenders:
   http://freshmeat.net/projects/mpmp/
   http://freshmeat.net/projects/aee/
   http://freshmeat.net/projects/savetrees/
   http://freshmeat.net/projects/jered/
   http://freshmeat.net/projects/fte/
   http://freshmeat.net/projects/dav/
   http://freshmeat.net/projects/diakonos/

And 2 other possibles:
   http://freshmeat.net/projects/ped-editor/
   http://freshmeat.net/projects/editkit/

I love this, from the mpmp homepage under 'Features':

   "It helps you abandon vi, emacs and other six-legged freaks definitely."

Har!
