You could (e,g, "*.mail"), but it would need a specific setting to
everybody's ~/.emacs . Would it be hard to arrange call like the one
presented in the bug report:

    With separate --emacs option, it would be a sign ro signify that the
    user is taking reponsible for sending the mail from inside Emacs.

Some users may prefer to use Emacs for "sensible-editor" and have the
nmudiff(1) send the mail.

That would serve both.
