IMHO the "scripting" ideas are totally horrible, unless they involve
non-text properties.  I would absolutely hate to have to beware of
message interpreting random text in my message as s&m "attach me"
commands.

The SGML idea is even worse, because it would mean having to type
every `<' and `>' as `&lt;' and `&gt;'.  Or am I missing something?
