These are already available. If I'm not mistaken, there are bundles
that allow you to edit/compose a message in Aquamacs, TextMate and
SublimeText and you can take these as inspiration for creating a
bundle for the editor of your choice.

The mailing list has more info about these. The most recent thread
about this topic starts here:

If you search the list, you should find some more.

HTH,
