Yes I would remove it until some further investigations into the world
of MIME and MUAs.  It can be easily added later.

Why not create an example message and throw it against as much MUAs as
possible?  This will at least allow us to go further than our personal
experience: If the majority of tested MUAs displays the message as
intended, than fine -- provide this functionallity with a warning.

I've tested so far with a really simple one:

 | MUA                  | Display ok?                             |
 |----------------------+-----------------------------------------|
 | Thunderbird 2.x      | Yes, horizontal lines between the parts |
 | MS Outlook Express 6 | Yes, horizontal lines between the parts |
 | Google               | Yes                                     |
 | GMX                  | Kind of...                              |
 | Squirrelmail         | Yes                                     |
 | Wanderlust           | Yes                                     |
 |                      |                                         |

Should be on the list: mutt, Evolution, Mail.app, smartphone-thins,
Opera Mail...
