No, what's sucky is that email4/5 doesn't support that.  It only folds
headers as unstructured blobs, with a nod in the direction of structure
by breaking lines at "obvious" places like ';'s.  (Which line breaking
algorithm is the subject of at least one bug report....)

I'd like to fix that in email6 by adding full support for structured
headers.
