Why multipart?

See <https://mail.python.org/pipermail/mailman-users/2014-May/076736.html>.

Granted, a decorated message with msg_header and/or msg_footer added is
multipart, if these decorations are omitted, you are left with a
multipart message with a single sub-part. While this is still RFC
compliant (recursion is wonderful), it is (to me at least) esthetically
unpleasing.

Perhaps a new Content-Type such as message/wrapped, although that raises
the question of what to do when a message/wrapped part is not at the top
level.
