I like the old/current screen better because it brings a better separation
of the different parts (headers, compose text, options). We already had
feedback from a usability expert, that the gray arrow to expand the headers
in the preview frame is not intuitive and I think we should therefore not
copy that into the compose screen. 

Indeed it took me a while to figure out how to unhide the other fields, so it really seems to be not very intuitive, but now I find it very convinient.

In my opinion it should be used either on both screen or on none. Else the interface becomes even more confusing. On the current compose screen the plus sign is used to unhide fields instead of the gray arrow. Maybe this is clearer...
