If the composition editor is in HTML mode, switching identities doesn't switch the signature. I can replicate this in IMP 4.0.4 and 4.1

I'm sure we already have a ticket for that, but I can't find it. The problem is that browsers (at least Gecko) are returning different HTML code each time you request it, when using the WYSIWYG editor. Thus we can't find the HTML code we need to replace the signature.

Is there a reason that we wouldn't want to do a

, then? Other than it might be a bit difficult to catch via regex when switching modes (?) Then again, I guess we already kind of do this in javascript code currently so maybe it wouldn't be that hard.

This change breaks messages where the signature happens to be inside the message body, e.g. in a longer thread where the original signature has been quoted.

I'm not positive I follow. Can you give me an example of that? And does that happen in the HTML editor only, or in plain text as well?

Happens only with HTML. If I get a reply to one of my messages with my message including my signature quoted, and then reply again to that message, and then switch the identity, not only my bottom-most signature is replaced, but large parts of the message disappear. Probably everything from the first (quoted) appearance of my signature, to the last.

I'm not having any luck reproducing this. My guess is that somewhere there's a regex that's too greedy, though - can you maybe look at the HTML source and see if the html comments we're using to delimit the signature are being put around too much text?

I think the issue is, that if you start typing a html message, the typed characters go *after* the comment, because the

with the signature is the first element in the dom, so that's where you end up, if the cursor gets the focus in the wysiwyg editor.

Worked around by adding an empty paragraph in front of the signature so that you focus the cursor outside the signature.
