If it's possible to do in Mail without Applescript, it's likely to be possible (or is planned for the future) in Applescript.

My #1 request is to be able to get the selected text via AppleScript.

This is something that needs to be done in Cocoa (so all apps can benefit). It's on my list, so I'll keep checking on it. :)

I hope you and the Mail team will be able to work that in. I also have a very tiny and non-critical UI request. It is that traditionally, one can choose any of the buttons in modal dialogs which don't have text boxes by typing a single key without modifiers. For example when the options are "Save", "Don't Save", and "Cancel", then one could just type a "d" and the 'DontSave' action would be performed.

I assume you're not talking about Applescript here? I've actually not heard of that convention before of using a single key. Sounds useful, though.
