Ctrl-Q does different things in FSEditor and SlyEdit.. Ctrl-Q quits (aborts) in FSEditor, while Ctrl-Q toggles the quote window in SlyEdit.

Why will the users be stuck with the internal editor?  Why not make Nano and other editors availeble for any users to use?  I think it's good to let users have a choice of their preference of message editor.
