I agree. I use it all the time. However the only difference is that you
don't have to delete the stupid extra line at the top. Otherwise it
still leaves the cursor in "wrong" place.

If the logic of not including the extra line is that the user probably
doesn't want to include a salutation, why isn't the cursor placed at the
bottom?
