Wait a moment, you have to read the whole RFC:  :-)

     4.2.  FORWARDING

          Some systems permit mail recipients to  forward  a  message,
     retaining  the original headers, by adding some new fields.  This
     standard supports such a service, through the "Resent-" prefix to
     field names.

To me this does say something about mutual exclusivity.  Besides that's how
sendmail does it and always has done it.  It never happened to me that the
address from the To: line was used again.

Great, so all we'd have TB make do is add the Resent-To line and make it
feed the whole mail to the smtp server.  Do you see anyway to do that?
If not how and where could I make such a feature request?

Eh, by the way, how do you MIME-forward a message with TB.  I don't see to
be able to find that option.  My TB always does an inline-forward. :-(

Nope, ALL the headers except From, Subject and Reply-to.  Here's an example:
