Subject: Bug#24865: External Editor Aesthetic improvements
X-MARC-Message: https://marc.info/?l=kmail-devel&m=98839908317753

Package: kmail
Version: 1.2 (using KDE 2.1.1 )
Severity: wishlist
Installed from:    Debian Package 4:2.1.1-9 (testing/unstable)
Compiler:          gcc version 2.95.4 20010319 (Debian prerelease)
OS:                Linux 2.4.4-pre3 i686
OS/Compiler notes: 

I know it's cheeky (two wishlist requests in
two days), but I've just switched to KMail
and these things tend to strike you all at
once.

I think the aesthetics of launching an
external editor are a bit odd at the moment;
a slightly better approach might be to have
composer launch in a special "external editor"
mode, which only has the dialog for selecting
identity and subject/to/cc etc, while at the
same time the external editor starts up with
the text.  KNode could benefit from this
approach too, I think.
