It wouldn't be safest because I would risk overwriting README in the current directory. That's not what I expect. In any case, I don't think that we should change the mhstore defaults because that might break scripts as well as user expecations. Those include the default of -noauto. You can override those defaults in your profile (I do) to get pretty close to what you ask for. Though there isn't a basename, it should be possible to support that with formatting strings that pipe the content to a script that runs basename(1) on %a. To get back to the question about RFC 2047 encoded name parameters, I'll just add a note to the mhstore man page for users to use mhfixmsg to get around that.
