Speaking as one who reads mail in a MIME-compliant but non-Emacs mail
handler(*), I'd really much prefer that strokes actually be encapsulated in
MIME.  That way, tm can display them directly, while others can hand them
off to an external XEmacs.

(*) Heresy, I know ... but sad-but-true life in the NT world, at least
until I can get NT-XEmacs working.
