Yes. It's a trade-off. Before SR-1, changing signatures could lose half your
carefully-written text. So they changed so that you never lose anything. The
corollary if that if you have "edited" any part of your signature (merely
typing a space within the bank line forming the the first line of your sig
is enough), you end up with both. that's the theory, anyhow. It seems to me
sometimes that merely editing (deleting any text) anywhere at all in the
message body is enough to get you both signatures.  i have a script running
every minute from a schedule, which changes the account and its signature if
I'm writing to a mailing list. I have ended up with both signatures fairly
frequently, if I happen to get in an edit before the script runs.

Still, it's much better than losing half your message. (It would remove
everything below the edit along with the sig, pre SR-1.)
