How do you use it?  I just tried it, and it seems be convenient for inserting
comments within a reply, maybe.  Yet, it leaves two white lines before point,
which is surely one too much.  Also, it does not seem to properly discover
the fill prefix for the following paragraph, at least in my little tries.
The amount of extra work needed to repair these things, even if tiny,
outweighs the benefits of using the command, at first glance.  But since
you underlined `VERY', above, I guess I may be missing something? :-)
