True, but textual content should be marked as text/something by the
sender.

And another point is that the buffer should be placed to a nice place, 
not just random.  Currently I get it instead of the Summary buffer, so 
it just screws up my display.  And it won't remove itself after I save 
it.  :-(

Please do regard it as copying.

away when you're editing the article?
