* Auto-detects if form is 'compose.php' and if PHP is giving us bad form

  data and will only trim when appropriate (the multipart/form-data form)
* Trimming method doesn't eliminate extra newlines -- just the first one.
* Cleaned up the code a bit.

* This code should be removed somewhat soon after RedHat officially releases
  a good binary package and after Konqueror works.
