Add sme option to git-format-path to encode thae patch content 
(MIME/base64)

Having said that, I think that you can actually teach every mail app 
(except maybe web-based ones) to respect formatting, including white 
space.

I hope the development team considers this. There is another uses case
that I can think of too:

- Sending non us-ascii patches (different langauge)

For documentation or code (Java/XML allows UTF-8). 

That is no counterargument. I.e. it does not hold through basic scrutiny.

Ciao,
