well, that's the key here: to be actually useful, it needs to be integrated into a highly specialized tool. the poor discoverability of that in conjunction with its somewhat minor utility is probably a sufficient argument for not going that route (beyond personal tool collections). github & co. providing a sensible content-disposition otoh is a (somewhat) well-known, generic solution to this problem.

but i wouldn't be opposed to for example git-mailinfo learning to understand the --pretty argument, if the implementation doesn't turn out to be completely out of proportion.
