I'll look into it.

I think that makes sense.

Until that’s possible (if ever), you can always use the MailMate 
plug-in in Quicksilver to compose a message using the selected text. 
You could even create a keyboard trigger for that if it’s something 
you’ll do often.


Thanks, I use Alfred but I bet there’s equivalent functionality.

You can drag and drop text onto a new message window from another

Presumably, one would drag the text to the MailMate icon in the Dock, 
where it will always be present while it is running, and where many 
users will have it if it is not. I think Sam's idea is a good one.


Yes, that’s what I had in mind. Thanks John.

I think it would. :)

My use case would be sending source code snippets to a collaborator 
or release notes to a client.
