Top posting or bottom posting isn't an "option", it's determined by
_where you click the mouse_. You're not supposed to just start typing
where the cursor drops, you're supposed to edit out the bits of the
quote that you're not replying to.

I'm sick of people blaming their email clients and other people taking
this at face value. What the hell would such an option _do_?
