Here's my limited knowledge of the stuff.
- text areas are different from Mail/News Compose
- Mail/News compose makes use of Composer whether or not you are typing
an HTML mail. I think that even if you say that you don't want to
compose html mails from an account, it will still use the Composer
backend to type mails.
I don't think there's any such thing as a plaint-text mail composer. If
there is, tell me I'm wrong.
Hence talks about mail/news compose turned into HTML Composer
- Pratik.
