- <excerpt>When <bold>messages</bold> is viewing a message with a text inset,
- and the inset has input focus, <italic>some</italic> keystrokes (like spacebar)
- are intercepted by <bold>messages</bold> and perform their normal action.
- However, <italic>other</italic> keystrokes are taken, and inserted into the
- inset (even though the message it's <italic>inside of</italic> is readonly!).<

- Yes, this is an old old issue. (Obviously it's never been resolved reasonably.
- ) Personally I believe the bindings should be done so that messages will not
- override any bindings the inset has. Also, we should make the insets readonly,
- except there is no concept of "readonly" coded in dataobject. (This should
- probably change.)<nl>

- <excerpt>(This is probably related to the one above.) Whenever you do an "
- Insert File" into a <bold>text</bold> inset in a message, the file gets
- inserted <italic>into the parent document</italic> (message) rather than into
- the inset.<nl>
