I always assumed that the disabled default was related to how invasive
the changes would be (to the UI or computationally-wise). As for the
overridability, that's actually the only reason why it would make
sense to put in the %feature hash ... otherwise a conf-settable
$patch_max (as in v2) would have been enough.

Actually I wasn't sure if I could use my within the if block, and have
the value visible outside (it's used further down when picking the
options to pass to format-patch). And since it was used in the second
patch anyway to choose whether to add the 'patch' link in html view or
not, I just put it outside the block.

Oopsie.

No, as extra 'email' headers, similarly to what commitdiff_plain does.
It might or might not make sense, and might or might not be worth the
effort. For sure the best way to enable these things would have to
give git format-patch some support for extra headers specified on the
command line.

Thank you.
