This is now available on the [next] branch, and also you can feed
in extended headers within the content handled by -t. I've also
fixed what we had yet, it actually didn't support character set
conversion until today, and i have completely dropped builtin
support for $ORGANIZATION / Organization: since that never made it
to any standard either.  We also do some syntax checking on
`customhdr' and *customhdr* content.

We don't have support for editing any such header via ~H yet,
i think in the end it should print something like "You may now add
custom headers, finalize input with an empty line" or something
similar.

Some header fields will continue to be handled in a special way.
We still don't do that very nicely, we don't have generic parsers
and validators, for example, but that will improve and the code
will hopefully be much cleaner, smaller, and more efficient
afterwards.  And we will be able to actually detect that a user
has actively edited a header, and will either don't touch it all
(after validation), or at least don't completely throw away the
work the user has put into the field.  We are not there yet.

Ciao!  And thanks for reqesting this, i've looked into this feature
long ago and decided i won't do it with the current codebase,
but actually it turned out to be implementable relatively easy,
just two and a half days, i think that's worth it given that v14.9*
will last for two years (or more)!
