From Bug 544162 Comment 0:

> It would make a number of extensions possible if we had a wrapping box around

> wrap all the elements we feel "contain" the message.  I'm avoiding wrapping the
> message header because of it's size and the existing problem with moving the
> buttons around overrunning the header text.

> One current example is the Data Miners extension.  Data Miners has extra
> information about the message like attachments, links, phone numbers, email
> addresses, and other various interesting pieces we can recognize.
