I use svn:externals for my extensions, so directly editing the 
MailerPage class is out. I understand that Ruby classes are open, but 
the Pages in radiant use a DSL for tags, containing a desc, tag pair. 
This is whats throwing me off.

It sounds like you're saying I can create an extension that loads after 
Mailer, and that defines a radius tag that is named the same as the one 
whose functionality I am looking to replace (r:mailer:option), and it 
will override the one defined in the Mailer extension. Do I understand 
you correctly? Could it be that simple?

(Sorry, c# .Net puts food on the table right now, so I've grown 
accustomed to be skeptical of simple solutions, because there are none 
in .Net, not that I've found, anyway).
