Is this really needed? People (like me) choosing to display messages as 
plain text usually do so because they never want to see HTML unless 
they explicitly ask for it (which is trivial in KMail because all they 
have to do is click on a link). OTOH, people (like my mom) who would 
want to see HTML-only messages always as HTML will most likely want to 
see all messages with HTML body part as HTML.

So, in short: I fail to see the (sufficiently large) user group 
warranting the implementation of such an option.

Anyway, that's just me trying to prevent us from adding features that 
nobody really needs. :-)
