Unfortunately it looks like the email patch doesn't give correct output
(although it does at least let the templates run). Basically right now
for a construct of the form

<ulink href="mailto:a b c">text</ulink>

the tooltip is set to "Send email to 'text'". This is bad if

	* 'text' is empty
	* 'text' does not contain an email address (eg, 
	  "Send email by clicking <ulink href="...">here</>.")

I've tried setting the parameter of the 'node' param to the gettext
template to various strings, but it looks like 'node' has to be an
actual XML node, so that approach isn't working -- I get an XPath type
error. Maybe it just makes sense to kill the special-casing of mailto's
here?
