Re: preformatters and entry parsers

I was just throwing an idea to this mailing list.

I propose a slight change in the current text message format (subject line  
followed by # lines and then the body) to the email format. It would have  
a few benefits like a standard way to encode the date, multiple line meta  
data, etc.

We can all roll our own parser plugin. But if enough people want this, it  
would be better than having everybody defines their own format.

Anyway I do have a plugin, which I attached a few days ago. But it is not  
of quality for general use. Maybe we can have an experimental plugin  
category with the caveat attached.
