1612333 - Fork nsIDocumentEncoder to comm-central

Status: NEW

(MailNews Core :: Composition, task)

Description

[Jorg K (CEST = GMT+2)]

M-C want to rewrite the HTML and plaintext serialisers to suit their needs dropping "pretty printing" (nsIDocumentEncoder::OutputFormatted) from the HTML serialiser and format=flowed (nsIDocumentEncoder::OutputFormatFlowed) and delsp=yes (nsIDocumentEncoder::OutputFormatDelSp) from the plaintext serialiser.

We should fork it into C-C to maintain this functionality. We may stop "pretty printing" for HTML mail and use CTE base64. Also see bug 1612321 comment #0 for further comments.

Note that we need to adjust "glue code" as well like nsIEditor.outputToString(). We should create a serialiser API that takes a DOM node to start with.
