It does.

Are you referring to the situation where the text version *IS* in fact
the content, but it is brought into a rich text format?  I don't
remember, but this might be a technical limitation... or simply a
reflection of the selection of reply format.  You seem to want the
editors to change, not just the content.  I'd have to look into
feasibility.

I don't have this problem.  Please provide an example message or
instructions to replicate.
