If you have such a good view of what doesn't work properly, fill bugs 
for Seamonkey/composer ! Even if nobody works on them right now, it will 
be very useful.

Your remarks made me check, and there's indeed a bit of activity on 
mozilla/editor, but I think only peterv (maybe Olli Pettay) is more than 
anecdotally working on it. The other two are certainly dead.

There's no checkin on Composer since February, it seems stalled.
Given that MoFo/MoCo really focuses on Firefox, I fear they finally 
decided not to do much for m/c.

I can understand Daniel has other priorities, and needs to bring home 
the bread, but it's a bit disappointing it stops without warning if it's 
going to resume, or if there's a change of plan.
