Yeah, that's why we did it the way we did. The theory was that you can
just look up to the message list to see the summary info while you're
reading the message, if you need to.

OTOH, that doesn't work for people who read messages in a separate
window, so perhaps in the separate-window view, the headers should stay
fixed...
