While sending multiple patches with a single git-send-email command,
To: field is not cleared after every mail. This patch clears To: field

Heh, are people who send patches with only S-o-b by your definition not
testing their patches at all ;-)?  As far as I can tell, your patch
applied to 'next' will break t9001 rather badly.

I agree there is a bug that you are trying to address in the series by
Stephen that keeps adding To: address that is read from an earlier output
of format-patch created with its --to option, but I do not think this is a
right fix.  Have you tested sending a series with a plain format-patch
output without extraneous To:, Cc: and such headers?

A normal send-email session takes the recipient address from either --to
or interactively upfront, and then use those addresses kept in @to
variable in the loop, repeatedly.  I do not see anything in your patch to
avoid losing these addresses.
