How could it have been intended for a header that it cannot know needs to
be inserted? Of course, we've discussed this inability recently.

And for it to add (or modify) Sender when it has no data from which to
construct such a header. Why is being "naughty" (which a program cannot
be) ok sometimes but not others?

There is a good excuses for allowing an injector to add a missing
Distribution, I can see no reason at all it should be messing with the
Organization header. Not a single reason. Do you have one?
