Would it perhaps be possible to put some or all of these headers after
the patch, as a set of "trailers"? That would make it easier for
human readers of the e-mail to get the bits that they most care
about.... namely, the patch itself. :-)

If we move the PGP signature to the end, then the fact that it is so
big and bulky becomes much less of an issue. A mini-sig might still
be a cool thing, from a space savings perspective both in the mail
archives, and in the git repo itself, if we start signing all commits.
But that seems like a separable issue.

Thanks,

- Ted
