I don't use vim often, but for Emacs, I think mouse is often needed:
* It is especially handy for selecting and deleting text.
* Mouse wheel gives you fine control. You can scroll by a few lines,
but scroll-{up, down}-command can't. For programmers working on
source code, this is especially nice.
* There is mouse3.el[fn:1], which is very convenient.
