However, Gmail has been so excruciatingly slow that a month ago, I've switched back to Outlook (Outlook for Mac 2011), and haven't looked back since. It feels really good to use an email client again that responds to what I do instantenously. Web email clients still have a way to go.
Half a year ago, I would've pumped my fist and screamed "Hell yes". That was the biggest feature I've missed in Outlook.

I just posted an update with some findings - basically, those "3D" and =\r\n characters that something is adding (somewhere in Gmail) are messing everything up. We're this close to a working version of this...
Oh yea, I didn't notice that 3D. It's weird because ascii 3D is just an = sign.

Are you sure this is a Gmail feature and not a Firefox feature? I have been able to paste images into RTEs (rich text editors) since Firefox 3. If the image comes from the clipboard, Firefox will add the image data inline. It works in all RTEs I use - e.g. http://ckeditor.com/demo , http://demos.telerik.com/aspnet-ajax/editor/examples/default... Since the src of the image is inline, you can save/send it as part of th…

More specifically, if you have Firebug, then it slows down Gmail considerably.
Firefox doesn't have the clipboardData interface like IE, Chrome and Safari have so it must be built into Firefox. From a quick look it seems like it doesn't expose the stream data to JavaScript which is unfortunate, I would love for this to be available.
