I think it'd be nice if the interface to this stuff was changed
slightly.  Why not have just one parameter, to-address, that specifies
the address to be used, and a variable or group parameter that selects
the desired behaviour (use to-address only for `a'/use it to clobber
everything else)?  This would make it easier to customise, too.  

The current use of two different parameters, both of which specify the
same type of data is confusing.  At the very least, exchange the
sematics of the to-list and to-address.
