The --delay option may have an undesirable side effect. In case of
non-chained emails, unrelated mails could be insterted between patches
where *all* MUA would be affected. It's not only true for very high
volume message mailing-lists (million monkeys receiving...). FMPOV, it's
worse than all display issues we already know or have with the current
behaviour.
