This sounds about right.  I'll be paying more attention to see if there is
more to this "bug".

The second bug is definitely a bug.  It just happened to me.  Here's what I
did.  I selected the text from Remo that I wanted to quote and then replied.
This put his text there, the sig down at the bottom below his text and I'm
not sure where the cursor was.  I had placed the cursor at the top of the
message and started typing the first paragraph of my reply.  I then changed
my from address (and hence my sig).  My sig ended up between my first
paragraph and Remo's text.  I then did undo and the second sig was replaced
by the first in exactly the same place as where the second sig ended up.
The original sig was still at the bottom.  This is exactly how the message
ended up after the undo (with this paragraph added afterwards as an
explanation).  The middle sig is from me changing my sig back after typing
this explanation.
