Diego,

I will be happy to work on this a little -- I have some time for it these days. I may bug you for assistance.

I haven't looked at the text editor or any other part of KMail, but I will be very surprised if at least my item 3 above cannot be handled.

One idea I have about handling it is doing "line unwrap" -- a paragraph separator would be any newline that couldn't have been inserted by line wrap (that is, if adding the first word from the next line to the line would still not make the line length over 78). This will still miss some cases (e.g. broken-off end-lines in 5-times-nested quotations), but I think it will be a huge improvement over the current situation. And the cases where it would err on the other side (connect separate paragraphs) are, I think, really rare.

I'll try to contact you about this next week.

Have fun,
Shai.
