templates: Prefer message body selection as Reply does
When using templated replies, I cannot select an area of text in the message I'm replying to and have only that show up in the quoted part of the reply. This works with non-templated replies.
The menu and context menu of the message preview don't have a submenu
for templates. The Templates
submenu of the context menu for the
message list passes the full body to $ORIG[quoted-body]
does not seem
to exist. The Apply template
option of the Alternative Reply
dialog
has the same issue.
There are two possible options for this:
- Add
$ORIG[selection]
and$ORIG[quoted-selection]
variables. - Pass the selection to
$ORIG[body]
and$ORIG[quoted-body]
variables.
I use GNOME 3.38, Evolution 3.38.2-1 and WebKit 2.30.4-1 on Debian bullseye.
