I am not trolling, I am making a legitamate point. Everyone keeps harping on
and on about this bug, but the fact is, the current composer can not even
handle HTML properly enough to re-create the stuff attempting to be preserved
anyway! IE, 25% of the emails I receive have HTML tables in them. The current
composer can not create tables. 75% of the emails I receive have images in the
signature. The current composer can not insert inline images.

I know that the QTextEdit control *supports* tables and images, but the
composer, does not. So, maybe a hack can be found that would preserve the
formatting, but you would not be able to edit it to, for example, add your own
image. Without editing capacity, preserving the reply in a half-OK state is not
useful.

As such - this bug *depends* on getting a new composer in KMail. This is a
fact, it is indisputable.

> Also, Mailody's composer is _not_ based on KHTML/Webkit

I stand corrected. Sadly this is even more disappointing :( I had assumed as a
new/recent project it would be using a decent editing widget....
