  This and other text manipulation (like reformatting, ...) are
  traditionnaly done by a text editor (I mean vi or emacs or other
  *edit).

  Shouldn't there be a mean to use a different editor than html text
  widget. I mean that every browser is able to open an application when
  receiving a file (if mime association are good). Isn't it possible to
  send the file to the browser, which open it with a text editor
  (chosen by user in configuring mime association) and then to upload
  back the text to the server, once edition is done ?

  Don't know how it is doable, but it would be a nice feature, because
  my favorite text editor has much more facilities to compose mail body
  than HTML widgets would ever have....
