96623 - [Feature] Form feed characters (\f resp. 0x0C)

Status: VERIFIED DUPLICATE of bug 27153

(MailNews Core :: Composition, defect)

Description

[Karsten Düsterloh]

It would be nice to allow the usage of form feed characters (0x0c) in news and 
mail, composition and display. Especially in usenet postings it is common 
practice to use \f to set so-called "spoiler spaces" to delay the following 
information until the next page. The character following the \f should be 
displayed at the first line that the current display window does not show, thus 
filling the remainder of the display window with empty lines.
During composition, a special marker might be shown instead (thin horizontal 
dotline or something similar).
