Would the Emacs maintainers in principle be willing to consider the
possibility of replacing the current dual mailalias-mailabbrev system
with one single (very customizable) system.
Yes. That sounds like a good cleanup.
I include a copy of a previously posted bug report about bugs that my
package takes care of.
Can you tell me which of the recent bugs (if any) your package
does NOT fix? And can you fix them?
How about this--can you fix this too?

Yes, this fixes the reported problem, but it isn't general enough.
Completing mail abbrevs must only happen for strings after
^[tT]o:[:blank:]?
or
,[:blank:]
Wondering when my .mailrc entries were transferred to
(define-abbrev-table 'mail-abbrevs '(...)) in ~/.abbrev_defs; was this
a one time action or does Emacs maintain this list?
Whenever Emacs decides to modify user files in tell the user about it
(through a message dialog the user is considered to confirm) and add a
comment.
