I find they're useful because they're visually distinct from anything
that might look like it should be part of the pipeline, etc.,
I'm quoting. In Vim, the digraphs, entered after Ctrl-K, for them are
`<<' and `>>', so they're readily to hand. And misappropriating them
from the French pleases my Englishness.

The QP is Mailman's meddling. I gave it
`Content-Transfer-Encoding: 8bit'.

Definitely.

Yes. I'm sure Paul won't mind being blamed. :-)

I fixed it manually when composing in vim. Didn't see the point in
deciding to keep those lines as context and yet mislead by their
content.

Cheers, Ralph.
