This isn't true for the Debian package since Debian (and probably Ubuntu, too) has its own default editor "sensible-editor" for determining the right editor. Conkeror in Debian and Ubuntu is patched to facilitate this feature. Not sure if there's any local documentation in the package about this, but if so, it's probably not patched.
