Yep, put a feature request in the tracker so I don't forget.

Hmm, okay.  File a request.

If it's not too much of a nit, I'd prefer something like
"[QST][SOURCE]".  In fact, why not just allow a "prefix" string and let
people put whatever they want?  Then they could say something like "From
the KK7DS Newsroom:\n".  In any event, add a tracker please.
