Sorry, I forgot to add the list as an addressee.
Does anyone else get irritated that replying to an xemacs-beta
posting requires extra steps to include the list and remove the
poster?
Sure, but that's almost always because they use broken MUAs. A
reasonable MUA will have a list-reply function, and with a little
generalization (ie, instead of failing if there is no List-Post
header, it looks for List-Post, Reply-To, and From in that order, and
uses the first one found), `list-reply' is pretty much suitable as
your default reply action. (The day that XEmacs lists start Reply-To
munging is the last day I will be willing to act as postmaster! ;-)
As Sean mentions, it's also reasonable to use a wide reply.

Is it reasonable to use the specifiers 'minimum-line-descent'

'minimum-line-ascent'?
Hm, I didn't know about those. Very cool! There's an unused
"interline space" struct member somewhere, which is what I was
thinking about.
Yes, that would have the same effect as the "strut" glyph, I think,
but be less kludgy.
In combination, they seem to do the job, but I don't know if
there are
any ill side effects (except one: the (block) cursor is in the wrong
place, above the text, instead of on top of the text.)
I presume that's an effect of minimum-line-ascent? Maybe there's a
way to control the height of the block cursor.
I'm entering a bug report in the tracker. In the future, please feel
free to do this yourself!
