It would be nice if git-format-patch would generate a [PATCH 0/n] message at the start of the series if some option were given. This would, of course, have to be editted afterwards to include actual information, but it would at least be pre-generated in series and with the configured headers and such.

Shouldn't the format.headers configuration automatically apply the correct line termination? Currently, you need to know to put in \r\n at the end of each one, and the example isn't even right (only puts \n).

Once we've got library support for remotes configuration, it would be nice to be able to have "mailto:" remotes with emailed patch configuration stuff per-destination.
