The conclusion I came two after a discussion on i...@ietf.org wasn't
that these mail clients are failing to mark things as format=flowed, but
rather that they are essentially not implementing text/plain at all, 
rather they are just faking it from text/html.

Most egeviously, Apple is now bug compatible.

I'd like ietf.org to enforce the 77 column limit on email, and see what
happens.

I'd like to write a document and declare that the standard.
