setting mailto links to open as html in iPhone/iPad HTML+JS app

Question

The app is wrapped by PhoneGap, so I have access to change the C#.

I know mailto body is sent as plain text. I've read that in OS3 a flag can be set in with the MailComposerViewController class to send html emails.

I don't mind exiting the app to send an email. I just wondered if I could change a little bit of #C so that my HTML5+JS app can use mailto to send rich emails, which seems less work than using the MailComposerViewController and getting it to talk to PhoneGap.

This guy has done an easy peasy to follow in app email plugin for PhoneGap:

Google is not very helpful (on this occasion), which is why I'm posting the link.
