Making it customizable is somewhat troublesome but it's easy
only to make recipients' addresses plain:

(defadvice message-get-reply-headers (after make-addresses-plain activate)
  "Make the recipients' addresses plain."
  (dolist (adrs ad-return-value)
    (setcdr adrs (mapconcat 'cadr
			    (mail-extract-address-components (cdr adrs) t)
			    ", "))))
