Awesome that you're starting in on that already! 3.6 is pretty ambitious though. We can't be landing major features too late in the development cycle and 3.6 is already a doozy. You need to allow adequate time for testing and bug fixing before a stable release. 3.7.1 seems a more realistic target. I'd be no less thrilled to be rid of GtkHtml by 3.8. > If you have any special wish (I bet Andre will come with many feature > requests > from bugzilla :P ) you'd like to have in the new composer, please share them > now.

My only request off the top of my head is to not subclass GtkWindow for your simple/html editors like GtkhtmlEditor does. That was a mistake on my part because it precludes us from embedding the editor in an existing window, and you'll likely want to do that later when you start working on a Conversation View. ;) I suggest GtkGrid as a base class. Out of curiosity, what does WebKit/GTK+ use for spell checking? Enchant? Will their APIs allow us to recreate the context menu with spelling suggestions plus other editing actions?
