I don't think we would enable this (unless it is enabled by default
upstream), since it is a controversial feature with Phil's opinion in
a rather definite direction. (I am giving Phil's opinion big weight
for the simple reason that he knows a lot more about the issue.)

However, the ultimate decision would be Marc's not mine, since he is
doing almost the whole work for exim packagin nowadays.
