So, we can yank HTML that we cut from Firefox like so:

(gui-get-selection nil 'text/html)

... sort of.

I've put the result into a binary file so it'll hopefully survive the
email transport.

So...  what is that?  I've tried to google, but I found nothing
promising, so my Google-fu is probably bad.

It rather looks like it's UTF-16 -- every other byte is a nul.  But
Emacs claims that it's iso-8859-1.  And...  I've tried decoding various
instances of these things like UTF-16, and it almost kinda works, but
not quite.

Any ideas?
