I have the exact same requirement, to create a union of CC in patches for cover-letter. That way sending a series to different people gives them the right context with cover-letter and individual patch. Now man git send-email mentions --[no-]cc-cover. I quote "emails found in Cc: headers in the first patch of the series (typically the cover letter) are added to the cc list for each email set..." I certainly want the reverse, but the question is how does one get about getting an address in cover letter in first place.
