I can see it being cool to have some sort of auto-save feature
like the one Emacs has, where messages get saved on a periodic
basis to a tmp file as they are composed.  Then, if something
crashes your application, you can open your backup message and
continue composing it.  Then, the backup gets deleted when the
message is sent.
