Now that the summary buffer can display the To: info of messages
I sent, I often feel like limiting the buffer to those messages
sent to a particular person.  Is there an analog of `/ a'?  If
not, can this be added?

Yes.  There should be a command to limit to the "extra" headers.
Err... how should the command prompt?  Based on `gnus-extra-headers'?

If it could complete on the contents of that variable, that would be
great.

It might also be good to have a separate keystroke for what's probably
the most common extra header:  "To".

Prompt the user for a header name, then ask for the value.  At least,
this is the simplest-to-use solution, I think.  Though it is not the
most flexible solution.

If it matters, the extra-header score functions do completing-read on
the variable, with a default of its first element.

I've now pilfered that code to do the prompting for the new `/ x'.
