Severity: wishlist

Currently, hg email provides switches to set the most important header
fields: BCC, CC, Date, From, Subject and To.

Just now, I wished to hg email a changeset bundle in reply to a BTS
email, and to make sure it was threaded properly, I wished to manually
set the In-Reply-To header field so that it contained the Message-ID
of the original message.  That is, something like

    hg email -r tip --in-reply-to 
'<[email protected]>'

It occurred to me that this might as well be genericized, so that
*arbitrary* header fields can be added / overridden.  That is,

    hg email -r tip --header-field 'In-Reply-To: 
<[email protected]>'

This prospective switch (--header-field) could be used multiple times, e.g.

    hg email --header-field 'Foo: Bar' --header-field 'Baz: Quux'

Presumably the existing --cc and friends could then be simple wrappers
for this feature.

PS: not CCing directly into upstream roundup because I can't find out
what its email address is (assuming mercurial's roundup instance has
email enabled).

  Hi,

  Mercurial gained support to setup (some) email headers since this bug
report. So, I'm closing it.
  If you thing that the support is not enough, please reopen this bug
and/or forward it upstream.

  Regards,
    Vincent
