Huh?  Should work with anything you put in the EDITOR variable really.
Use it with emacsclient myself and a current version of Xpdf on Ubuntu.
I think it would also work with Evince et al (following instructions in
UG) but haven't tried recently.  Let me try:

Ok, refuses due to "permissions" in Evince, works in Atril.  Checking
the Evince setup according to UG...  It's set up like described.  But it
would appear like since I am not running GNOME actually (but xfce4) that
Evince is missing its infrastructure.  Like gnome-open or gvfs-open.
