[Email-SIG] Patch: Improve recognition of attachment file name, with encodings

[Nando]

You have succeeded in confusing me to the point I don't know whether my 
own proposed patch is useful anymore.

It would seem to mean a change in philosophy, from "just implement the 
standards closely" to "give the application developer what he needs". 
But this goal would only be accomplished with many alterations to the 
codebase.

So if this is true:

I cannot see any documentation stating that the way of this project is 
to have each class implement one RFC. If there *were* a writeup on this 
somewhere, maybe I wouldn't have annoyed you with so many questions and 
absurd propositions.

But why would you lie to me? So it must be true...

Then I don't agree with my own patch anymore.

Anyway, the necessity of a high-level interface remains and nobody has 
answered my question: whither?
