Right. So maybe there should be different default options. (I can see the
argument that there shouldn't. But there don't seem to be answers here where
nobody loses. My preference is very strongly for shaking up the people who
use old Netscape mailers and don't understand what it is doing over those who
might suggest that composer is a good tool for producing web content. But I'm
not writing the code, so it isn't my decision).

  I think the main point of argument in this thread is the behavior of the
  *Web page* editor, not that of the mail editor (even if they use the
  same code).

  Currently the user has to know the HTML details very well in order to
  make proper *Web pages* in Editor. If Editor took care of doing the
  Right Thing, the user wouldn't have to know all the HTML details.
