As long as there is --no-annotate to cancel a configured value for
one-shot invocation (I didn't check, but it should be added if there isn't
already one), I think this change makes sense (I admit that I do not use
the --annotate option myself, though).

I almost always use --annotate, so this option definitely makes sense
for me (I usually call send-email through an alias that adds --annotate
anyway).

I do not doubt the usefulness of it, but if there is no --no-annotate, it
would make the new variable unusable for those who would never run it
without --annotate option; while you said "almost always", you didn't give
us any useful information, so I had to check ;-)  It turns out that

    $ git send-email --no-annotate </dev/null

errors out with "unrecognized argument: --no-annotate", which first needs
to be addressed before the configuration variable can become useful.
