Arg.  This was supposed to be sent to the previous thread about this.
Ironically, I'm using the patch that removes id: from the message-id
kill-ring, but then I manually added it back to git send-email!  HA!

So there is now discussion about use detach instead of screen, which is
much more minimal and doesn't use setuid and setgid and therefore
doesn't purge TMPDIR.

In any event, I think we need to push this patch until we have a patch
to use detach in hand.

jamie.
