there's no
reason why Mail needs to provide the same degree of magic.
Well put. I would add that automating all UI tasks (and making sure
they all work as expected) is far higher priority than 'throwing in a
bunch of stuff just because we have code lying around that we think
might work.' Just because we focus on the important stuff doesn't mean
we don't care about what we don't mention.
