Note, Charles wrote about "hundreds of little-used features", while
you counter with a single example.
Add up all the hundreds little-used features waiting to be included,
then tell again.
Nobody denies that any _single_ such feature means little impact,
but why add this SMTP or return-receipt and not all the other little
goodies? Convenience applies for all equally.
