I know some things about the gtk3 version of the recipient list have been discussed, but I don't recall any

addresses near the top of the list, I have to scroll up for each address, as after deletion of one, it again 
displays the bottom of the list.  Could a pane split be put between the recipients and subject?  Would it 
work?

Shoulda read more closely: no, a pane split between the recipients and the subject is tricky.  The headers 
are all packed in a GtkGrid to keep vertical alignment.  So I put all the headers in the top pane, and the 
content in the bottom pane.  They *could* be split as you suggest (and that would be needed to get separate 
control over the recipients and the attachments), but at the cost of losing vertical alignment.

Comments?
