Kudos, metawords and bottom-posts

Nice extension.  Works well.

I wanted to share a web site on bottom-posting.

        http://mailformat.dan.info/quoting/bottom-posting.html

A good treatment on Interleave and Bottom-post replies.  There is
also an argument for Top-posting as well.  Worth a glance.

On my Ubuntu implementation of linux I am using the metaword
'[munch]' to indicate that I have chopped my reply.  This fits
nicely into the extension as 'After Quotation'.  Thanks for this
feature.

I also use the 'Before Quotation' string.  Mine is set to: 'On
%date %author wrote:'

When I reply I see that the metaword is block selected.  I need to
hit "down arrow" to remove the block selection and place the cursor
 under the metaword to begin my reply.

If I start typing without hitting down arrow, the metaword is
deleted and the cursor moves to the top of the message and inserts
text before the line 'On %date %author wrote:' overstriking the "O"
in the word On.

I kinda want my metaword to be '\n[munch]\n' with no block
selection if that makes any sense.

Am I missing anything?
