Yes it is, and I agree that some more formatting options would come very 
handy and would really make this finally useful, but in the first place I 
didn't want to do anything that would break the "traditional behaviour", and 
second this would be a much bigger task than what I did so far (it took me 
about 30 minutes including testing...)
Maybe we should first do a little requirements "survey" so it becomes most 
useful for all.
