Thanks for setting that up.
I can assure you that it works on real headers as well as "pseudo"
headers in the body. See eg help text at

https://lists.gnu.org/mailman/admin/emacs-devel/?VARHELP=topics/topics_bodylines_limit


Before this report is closed, the other aspects of it were:

1) Is that a system people are ok with using? It was just my suggestion.
2) If so, get it documented/advertised/used.
