The above is not a very useful "example" to advance this discussion, I have to say. For one, where is your Oggetto? Are these fields the only ones you will ever see? Are they always empty?
I would expect, at least when you are responding to an existing message, some of them are filled already (and if so, I think appp.sh wants to know exactly how, for example, has RFC2047 quoting already applied, or are we supposed to write in UTF-8 and let Thunderbird massage the contents when we give the file back to it?), and also there would appear In-Reply-To: field already filled (possibly there may be References: as well).
And if you are replying to an existing message and Thunderbird fills To: or Cc: fields based on the ongoing discussion, I wonder if it is a mistake to override that based on anything from what we read from format-patch output in the first place.
