I'd send him a request to add another number (not a flag but a set of
flags) that programs like TMDA could use (non-MUAs).  He's
deliberately designed that 'info' field so it's infinitely extensible.
He might suggest something, or be willing to document something we
came up with.  I realize it's not likely, but it's certainly possible,
since his design indicates he's thinking down that road.
