Sending email to found contacts

Two things with sending email to found contacts --

1) The "from" address is that of the person logged into the CMS. It would be nice to be able to override that. We may have multiple staff logging in, but email everything out from a single, generic, organization email.

2) The html email doesn't seem to be working. I have content for both html and text configured, and my test records have either "html" or "both" indicated for the email preferences, but the only thing being sent out is the text version. Any ideas why that's happening?

1. Please file an issue. We will fix it in a 2.x release, if important, please consider submitting a patch

2. send email to contacts only sends "text" email messages (even though a message template can have both). Please file a separate issue for this. A patch for this would also be appreciated :)
