I wonder - does the "one address per line" get cumbersome for messages
with lots of addresses?

Generally, anything (deleting, moving from 'To' to 'Cc', etc.) that is
done for one address at a time is at least as easy, if not much easier.
But at this time, there is no way to apply the same action to a set of
addresses, and in those cases it becomes cumbersome.

Actually, I suppose that MUAs that use several addresses per field could
also have something like an 'Unused' field: this field would be populated
by the MUA with addresses that by default will not get the answer, but
the user could e.g. drag and drop addresses between this field and the
'To' and 'Cc' fields. Does this already exist?
