DM> What about the bbs.msg_number property? It behaving as you would expect?

I haven't tried using bbs.msg_number yet, but so far it seems to be behaving as
I would expect.  But I'm a little hesitant to use it for
MsgBase.get_msg_header(), since it doesn't change when new messages are added
or deleted.  SlyEdit (currently) uses message indexes, since I've always
thought that was the most reliable way to reference a message.  I remember a
discussion a few months ago that I think involved using bbs.msg_number in a
calculation to come up with an absolute message number, which wouldn't
necessarily be for a message that exists.  Can bbs.msg_number be used directly
in MsgBase.get_msg_header (with the by_offset parameter as false)?
