Horrible ;-).

If this were not about request-pull but some other command that produces a
summary of recent changes you have, which you might want to distribute to
people who are involved in the project (e.g. Meta/cook), it might make
sense to have "generate and then e-mail" feature inside the command,
because such a command needs to inspect the history and grab various kinds
of information anyway, and adding "people involved" to the mix might make
sense.

But you are talking about request-pull, which is by design is meant to be
sent to a single recipient.  If the user has to say --to user@xxxxxxxxxxx,
how is it different from piping the output to "| mail to@xxxxxxxxxxx"?
