Extra Header field

Firstly, the extra header does not solve a problem that cannot be solved by
parsing the whole message.

The extra header only makes it much easier. I can decide how to handle a
message just by looking at the header, without the need to parse the whole
message first. Parsing a big MIME message is resource intensive. 

Adding this header to the message will not affect the format or the storage,
why is it such a problem?
