If you can figure out a reasonable algorithm to detect format=fakeflowed,
I'm all ears.  I don't really think it needs to be on-disk ... if all of
the utilities output it properly, then why is that necessary?

I am under the impression that most MUAs can HANDLE format=flowed just fine.
It's just they don't send it when they should.
