Well, this tells us two things:

1. We need those other features (well, we already knew that).
2. The existence of this features and of reply-to munging is irrelevant to  
what 822bis should say, because what it says will be irrelevant to the  
existance of these things.

Above, you just proved that we can't solve them anyway - we can't do new  
stuff, and old stuff isn't enough.
