I see no reason _not_ to use the From_ line... it rarely contains
anything particularly valuable (other than the "From_" prefix which
marks it as a separator), and since its syntax isn't well-defined, any
information that _is_ there is only ever used for human perusal -- and
appending a -*- variable doesn't cause problems for humans.
