The quicktext plugin can 'Insert Snippet' which may contain mail addresses. 
Should that not be usable? I did not see how yet though.

If new  API is needed, I will test it on with my plugin.
This weekend I started setting up a development environment so I can use 
libmessages from master.

The plugin would need to have access to the mail headers and be allowed to 
change them. Ideally it can change message before the composition window 
opens.

Best regards,
Jos
