People might have scripts using it but I doubt anyone still relies on that because git mail never did that inline/filename dance so scripts which convert mboxes to quilt need to have a mechanism to create filenames anyway. My personal script uses the subject line to create the filenames and I never tried to use the inline filename as those filenames are often enough complete garbage.

It is. There is nothing else in the headers which could cause that. quilt mail format is pretty simplistic.

No objections.
