The Owner=<LIST> hack is pretty slick and I wish I'd known about it some
time ago!

The most efficient way I've found of changing header information en masse
ad hoc etc cetera is to write a little script to pop me open multiple tabs
with each list set to manual configuration, then tab through the tabs* once
to make and submit the edit, then again to check and reload each tab to
double-check it.

*like tiptoeing through the tulips, but different
