Note that the mail clients used by a (large? overwhelming?) majority of folks will NOT do this. Most mass-market MUA's hide all but a select (and small) set of headers.

yes, that's understood. a few MUAs can be configured as to which fields they display. for the rest, "show all headers" (or "blah blah blah" :) is the best they can do.

of course, this is no different than any other new field.
