I'd still need to pass them through the script I use; the point is to
have the summary window in my MUA display useful names in the mail
author column.
Archive searching would also need it to be the From: header.
They would, though, probably need a Reply-To:, MFT: or similar pointing
replies to linux-kernel. I hadn't thought of that aspect until reading
your reply....
I suppose the -M -C change would be enough for now.
