IMHO, the most important thing to keep in mind is that whatever HTML the 
writer of the mail writes it needs to be transformed into nicely 
formatted plain text for the text/plain part of the 
multipart/alternative.

A special function of the composer (maybe not really special, but 
independent of HTML editting) is the possibility to add attachments via 
drag and drop.

Another important feature is spell-checking, on demand and while-you-
type.

I just noticed "Speak Text" in the context menu of the composer. It is 
mandatory that the composer is accessible.
