First, I'd like to ask a stupid question: why is it you want to see your
alias list, if not for sending or forwarding messages ?
Second, I don't think edit_hdrs is to blame for the behaviour you describe:
I'd rather put it on autoedit, which skips the prompt for recipient. I
personally have these settings:
unset autoedit #do not skip recipient prompt
set edit_hdrs  #headers in editor
set fast_reply #skip prompt when replying

Then I can use <tab> when composing or forwarding messages if I can't remember
the aliases, and in the compose menu to add some recipients.

Now if you really have to see your aliases without involving a mail sending
phase, I have no other suggestion than to edit your .mutt.aliases file.
