Actually, not really. I think "the real issue" if sending attachments
(and non-ASCII text, including in headers) in "the default
mail-composition interface". *Very* few users actually choose
mail-mode.

A simpler change is to make message-mode the default UI.
This thread seems to show that noone knows of any actual difference that
users would notice (other than being able to attach files and stuff, of
course).
So I think the first step should be to change mail-user-agent to
default to message-user-agent.
The next step will then be to make Rmail use message-mode as well
(which may require some changes to message-mode, of course).
