Yeah, I said this number of times over time, and I said it once
recently in another thread, but I think it was a mistake to allow
git-send-email to drive format-patch. It may appear that it will
make things convenient in the perfect world where no user makes
mistakes, but people are not perfect in real life. Expecting them
to be is being naive.
