Hmm, unlike folks who use GGG, your From: address seem almost usable
without having to waste two extra lines (which matters when one has
to review many patches a day).
Blame an unhealthy appreciation for being able to write emails in Vim.

I generate patches with 'git format-patch' - what's the unusable part of
"almost" usable here?
Compare your message I am responding here, with your message with
the patch in it.

This one has a perfectly usable "From:" address,

    From:   Emily Shaffer [off-list ref]

while the patch e-mail has

    From:   emilyshaffer@google.com

which cannot be quite usable as the author identity.
