Originally, I just wanted to emphasize, that --to and --cc are
currently handled differently than in git-send-email, where
all this quoting/encoding is done.
And it is much more convenient to add
--cc 'Jan H. Schönherr <...>'
than
--cc '=?UTF-8?q?Jan=20H=2E=20Sch=C3=B6nherr?= <...>'
Even more, since I would expect git to correctly handle
addresses given in a format that is also used elsewhere
within git.
However, I agree that we are not responsible to check/quote/encode
anything when the user supplies whole headers (though we probably
could).
But if I cannot convince you, I'll just drop this patch. :)
Regards
Jan
