Exceptions are explained by a note. I think it would also be useful to record which UAs allow their users to easily insert a Reply-to header in outgoing messages. Microsoft Exchnage does not allow it at all. Simeon has a fill in the blank field for it (although you have to scroll down to see it). I would not count or would note separately a UA that simply allows manual editing of the message headers to insert a Reply-to with no other assistance from the UA.
