Full Node Body

You are correct, concerns have been expressed in a couple of places about adding this code, though I'm not sure exactly what the "performance concerns" are.

In any case, for the purposes of this smaller module (thus having smaller implications), I've decided to test out greggles' suggested approach which is essentially a localized version of this patch which follows the approach mentioned here. The patch is attached, and I'll commit it shortly (after a tiny bit of testing), to go into the forthcoming 1.0 release if it seems to work ok.

ok here's a slightly more tested (works for me) patch, although in the course of making this work i've realized there's a couple hitches to this approach:

1. the node body is not rendered as it would through node_view, and therefore any _nodeapi hooks etc. don't apply

2. the node access tables do not get checked (though this seems less of an issue, since they could see the original node in order to click the Discuss This link)

basically the only processing i've done on the node as passed to the token module is to strip out any "break" tag in the original body. you have been warned :)
