But on second thought, you are never "inside" Insight for more than
a second or few, because all it does is format the mail page you are
viewing, and you look at the .htmlified result thru Arachne.

Composing mail is a different matter. 
You ARE inside Arachne here, using the "editor" unless you have opted 
for an external editor.

So, maybe Arachne should try to run the "keep-alive" function while in 
the editor too ?
