It sounds like a fallout of this:

  https://public-inbox.org/git/41164484-309b-bfff-ddbb-55153495d41a@lwfinger.net/#t 

and any change to "fix" you may break the other person.

If I recall the old thread correctly, it was reported that using
Mail::Address without forcing git-send-email fall back to its own
non-parsing-but-paste-address-looking-things-together code would
solve it, so can the "make it configurable" be just "install
Mail::Address"?
