It looks like you have to copy/paste into a new message as you've outlined above, except that in the section titled "Apply Outlook stationery and themes to a single message", you should be able to do it for a single message, rather than turning it on and off globally.
Actually, you could try doing that to an in-progress message, maybe it will work.
UPDATE: there are some Google hits on using a macro for this e.g.
