I'm glad you made something you really like and use. Congrats on getting on Hacker News too! However, I love the smaller compose box. I can't tell you how many

I'm glad you made something you really like and use. Congrats on getting on Hacker News too! However, I love the smaller compose box. I can't tell you how many times I needed to look an another email while writing one. I was ecstatic when gmail added the feature! And let's be serious, the "tiny Gmail compose box" really isn't that tiny.

+1/this. I didn't like the new gmail at first, who likes when the things they use everyday change. But "pop out reply" is fantastic, for exactly the reason you cite: I can my emails search for context, for additional info, and move seamlessly back and forth between the compose area and the email area - it's like having a non-intrusive "always on top" window for note taking when doing research.
