Mutt appears to correctly handle space-stuffing for display (with the built-in 
pager), but lines ending in space (i.e. those intended to be flowed) are 
displayed as fixed rather than being combined and re-wrapped to fit the 
terminal width. For text/plain format=flowed content types, could mutt be made 
to combine flowed sections into a single line that is then wrapped to the 
current terminal width? (See RFCs below for details and complete explanation.)

Could mutt also be made to support the DelSP parameter when viewing messages?

[This is even more wishful...]
Generating format=flowed and DelSP=yes messages is up to the user's chosen 
editor, so mutt has only to concern itself with display of these messages in 
the built-in pager. For cases when an external pager is used to view messages, 
it would be a nice bonus if mutt could concatenate flowed sections into a 
single line before passing the message content to the external pager.
