Hello Thomas,

I love writing disclaimers. :) (Please note, this was a joke. It was
intended to be not funny.)

Yep, in fact alt-L (and its siblings for other justified modes) have
one distinct advantage. You can select the lines you want to reflow.
Here as an example, I've mangled part of your message:
> Oops, while typing this,
> Allie's and your follow-up

This has pretty ugly formatting, but let's say I want to keep the last
two lines the way they are, so I'll select some text from each of the
other lines and hit alt-L.
> Oops, while typing this, Allie's and your follow-up messages just

So with alt-L it is possible to reflow text in a list or a table
without losing the <cr><lf> marks. The trick is to highlight text
from the lines you want to reformat.
Happy editing.
