Btw, isn't there's one more misfeature with write-region due to
rmail-write-region-annotate: if you use write-region to save a portion
of the current message to a file, would Rmail do that from the message
collection buffer instead? if so, what would be the encoding of
non-ASCII characters in the region as saved to the file?
