I think that this is not a bug in delete, but rather how the message pointer
is updated after commands.  I think a new variable could be added that would
enable a different algorithm.

The pipe command is actually required by POSIX.2.  The save to a pipe
option is not specified, and the syntax for the latter is "| 1,5 cmd".

POSIX.2 specifies "sign" and "Sign" variables that are brought in with
the appropriate ~ escapes when composing messages.
