Details:

Attached a patch that sets the EDITOR field in edit.m to the custom editor
entry of the settings file in order to avoid confusion. If custom editor is
disabled, the EDITOR field is set to "GUI". If "edit EDITOR some_editor" is
called, the entry in the settings file is updated, too. If some_editor is
"GUI", the use of a custom editor is disalbed without changing the name.

For a consistent format the placeholder for the file to edit is changed to %s
in the gui. 

Instead of changing the entry in the setting file a warning message could be
displayed when "edit EDITOR some_editor" is called (included in the patch but
commented out).
