Just FYI, I've done this instead:
https://bitbucket.org/cameron_simpson/css/commits/9bdab9c16452223a58508939d43b04c23820bdb2
Since all my mail aliases arre autogenerated from a database, this
suppresses the fullname part for addresses in my new "noaliasname"
address group. So now I'm just marking addresses which need it as being
in that group (all of 3 addresses so far).
