Example: I create an internal "mail form". I preset the destination and
the sender. I don't want those changed in any way as they are going to and
from usernames. I want the "Send To:" and "From:" to look like text boxes
since the "Subject:" is a text box (and the message is a text area).

It is just aesthetics.
