Yes, that's intended (I'm going to clarify this in the documentation).
The problem is, sometimes is handy to be able to add a mail header in
the "pseudo-header" section, and have it moved to mail header when
sending the report. For example X-Debbugs-CC.

If I have to leave all those files in the pseudoheader section without
moving them, then there would be a kind-of regression. So, I decided
to force those p.h. to be left in the p.h. section only if specified
on the command-line, and keep doing the same filtering (if the field
is recorded in the p.h. list of headers) and move the other fields to
mail headers if specified in the mail text.
