Question:
Is it possible to configure dzdo to prevent escaping from vi to a root shell?

Answer:
If you go into the 'Attribute' tab in command definition and unchecked the box next to "Allow nested command execution", it will prevent the ability to spawn a new root owned command line after typing in :!/bin/bash.
