for me the reason to seperate the headers is just because i always
have a large number of messages to approve... now it takes me much
longer to approve everything because i have to stop at each message
and move the mouse to scroll the textarea... normally it was just
read, scroll, click accept/reject and scroll to the next message.
Even if the full message is visible in the textarea, my mind needs
a bit of time to focus on where the headers end and the message
begins...

Ricardo.
