Store input format setting for Rules and actions [#1203234]

I have an HTML email being sent via a Rule. It exists as part of a Features module feature that I am enabling on our staging server. The "Filtered HTML" Input Format is selected. If I select another, it correctly changes, but if I save the Rule Action, the value does not stick. When I reopen it, the original input format remains selected.

For what it's worth, I'm doing this because the Linebreak filter is used for the default input filter and my HTML emails are breaking really weirdly.

I see I seem to be able to do this globally by modifying the Mime Mail settings.

The main point of using filters would be to enable using WYSIWYG editors on this field, not to use an input format different than the module setting. However I see this needs some enhancement. We should either disable the field (and use the module setting) or save the chosen input filter for the field.

Right, agreed with that, sgabe. I think it would be sufficient to lock the field and include a note that says "HTML emails are filtered using the global Mime Mail module setting. Visit the Mime Mail configuration page to change that." or something.

But, I guess I also still do prefer saving the chosen input filter. I'm using Rules for these mailings because I want our staff to be able to modify the text and whatnot later using, as you suspected, the WYSIWYG. I could ostensibly see having a mime mail rule or two, though, that uses just PHP code and, hence, would use my PHP code filter only, so I'd want to choose a different Input Format.
