To discourage top-posting, would it not be preferable to begin with the
cursor on the last line rather than the first line of the body?

:editor: '/usr/bin/vim -f +$ -c "setlocal spell spelllang=en_us" -c "set
filetype=mail"'

(Of course, that might encourage an increased cascade, but there's only
so much the tool author can do to encourage the user to comply with
conventions)
