No matter what you do here it will misbehave in some scenarios and
break someone's workflow :<

Originally we required the patches to have X-Mailer set to
git-send-email, which seems reasonable, but that annoyed people because
their servers were stripping out those headers.

Other people send out the patches by feeding them to the drafts folder
through IMAP and then sending them out. This, depending on the
provider's configuration, also gobbles up a thing or two.

Because of the above I am not sure about trusting "Re:" and matching
"From:" headers as good enough indicators either.

It just adds more opaque "smartness". I already can foresee questions
asking "why my v2 was not picked up?" and someone would have to debug it
down the line.

Was the address different (+XYZ before @)? Has that someone used
--subject-prefix=re:? Is it an actual bug? Etc.

Just add the following header:
"X-Patchwork-Hint: comment"
to emails that you type out manually.

For mutt it's as easy as adding:
"my_hdr X-Patchwork-Hint: comment"
to your .muttrc
