Very nice, after installing the latest git version the composer
window can be opened with arguments for mailto protocol.
I tested it here:

and all examples works in trojita, bravo!
Good to hear that people are using this already. Thanks to Pali for the
patch.
I'd like to ask if there is any argument also implemented to
add an attachment ? (i thought an eg: right click on a file and
send by mail)
I read that it isn't supported by mailto protocol.
If someone is going to implement this, please keep in mind possible
security implications (a script calling this function might not have access
to a possibly sensitive file, while Trojita typically does). Having access
to the D-Bus session bus IMHO does not imply read access to user's files
(think selinux).
I see a few options:
- Only support attaching a single file, and open file picker which defaults
to that file, but requires a user's OK.
- Open the composer with a passive notification bar within the window, and
require user's OK in there to confirm attaching the files.
- An ugly interactive dialog.
What do you think?
Oh, and disallow setting arbitrary file name through this API (i.e. make
sure that what the user sees in the composer includes the real file name).
Cheers,
Jan
