I don't believe one can, or should. These commands are intended to
operate on a single label. There's no attempt to call
mail-parse-comma-list or anything like that. If you try to add mutiple
labels without spaces after the comma, it won't work right.

That's a different case. That command is designed to handle multiple
labels.
