And the suggested mechanism would guarantee that legitimate References
headers deliberately sent would also be removed.

People that use them have on numerous occasions (both on and off list)
complained about the fact that the charset is stripped from the
Content-type header.

No I am not. You asked me to use my imagination instead of refering to
RFCs. The fact that I don't have to use my imagination but can point
to unwanted side-effects of altering headers that we already
experience on this very list should be reason to think twice before
adding even more alterations.

You can modify any of the open source email clients you want, but
personally I would look into implementing it in the Message Delivery
Agent instead of the client. That way it works the same even if you
use for instance webmail.
