If you press ctrl-g or use the corresponding menu option to jump to a line the popup will display the current line at which the cursor is located. Make sure word wrap is turned *off* otherwise the keyboard shortcut will do nothing and the menu option will be disabled. I prefer vi's persistent per-line display but after years of finding myself on Win2K servers with only notepad available, pressing ctrl-g and then esc to get a quick peek at the line number has become a near-reflex.
