O.K. Fair enough. I'd like to see this autodetected (and not by
editor type or version), but that's clearly a refinement.
How would you propose to make that work with charsets? If I'm running
in XEmacs/Mule I would like to see Japanese inline. If I'm running in
XEmacs/no-Mule I would like to see it punted to /etc/mailcap methods.
Similarly for KOI8, etc.
