Comment:

 Browse sets the metadata entry 'source' to '1' and the 'mime_type' to
 'text/html'. This gets picked up fine by write and it opens the source of
 the page. The problem is that write once it's saves it does store the
 journal entry in its own format and browse can not open it anymore. Write
 should not change the mime-type and the format of an opened journal entry.

 My test to verify this was: If I just store the source page from browse to
 the journal (and do not open it in write) I can open it again in browse
 and the html is interpreted as desired.
