I think that this is a great idea.  :-)

But then I am of the feeling that kmail should be written as follows:

1.  Write a back end with a bunch of libraries.
2.  Write front-ends as necessary.
=09a.  vi-mode
=09b.  emacs mode
=09=09(These last two are for us complete _freaks_)
=09c.  iMail mode
=09=09(just to anger the lawyers at Apple.  :-)
=09d.  Eudora mode
=09=09(a sensible default?)

3.  All die of exhaustion.  I realize that we don't have the time necessa=
ry to=20
do all of this, so I am only suggesting this offhandedly.
