David,

I think that trying to enforce rules on Digestors like "Insert
a line of 30 hyphens as message separator" would never work,
for example, my keyboard cannot count.

The right way of handling this would be to elaborate the Multi-Media
and Script concepts, work that is currently going on (e.g. in IFIP).

The X.400 way may also work. It may look cumbersome but it should
be remembered that the user interface is completely left out
from the recommendation, leaving it up to all and everyone to
tackle the User-Presentation problem as he wishes.
