As much as I agree with the sentiment behind this, I much prefer Kai's
message-x.el package which does basically the same thing, but in a more
generic, user-configurable fashion. (See the Ding mailing list archive circa
09 Aug 1996.)

Kai's message-x.el already does this. And it's trivial to add additional tab
handlers for other headers.

Let's roll Kai's stuff into message.el instead.
