While I do agree with you in principle, it *is* something that's been in
MUAs forever now, and even in IMP for a while, and folks are pretty
attached to it. So we need to make it pretty easy for people to maintain
the current level of functionality. I'm not vetoing the move to Ingo,
though; like moving contacts to Turba, it makes sense.
