These are already available. If I'm not mistaken, there are bundles that allow you to edit/compose a message in Aquamacs, TextMate and SublimeText and you can take these as inspiration for creating a bundle for the editor of your choice. The mailing list has more info about these. The most recent thread about this topic starts here: http://lists.freron.com/mailmate/2014-March/002186.html If you search the list, you should find some more.
