Might be a bit early, but will the Windows support be good for Bash on Ubuntu on Windows? Right now I use xming and run xterm inside it, but that is not a perfect solution, especially for things like vim. It works for now, but I am definitely looking for a good alternative.

Per [0], it looks as though only Bash on Ubuntu on Windows is being targeted, and not CMD or Powershell.
