Aye. Quite annoying.
Entirely agree. And if we're going to have a new field for
suggesting where replies go, it needs to be designed in such a way
that it makes a useful suggestion for the recipient, rather than in
such a way that recipient UAs are expected to process it
automatically without human input.
I think the correct thing is for the header to contain information
specific and pertinent to the person who inserted or added to it.
Something about /their/ preference, and avoid assuming things about
respondents by trying to suggest things to them.
