I hardly ever use --to for one-off patches or repositories which I'm not
regularly contributing to, and I expect that prompt. In-Reply-To has a
much less compelling argument, though, as Junio pointed out, given that
it's often not necessary or desirable, whereas for "to", every email has
to have at least one recipient to make sense.
