I believe if the mailing list is configured to have a "real name", then
it will fill in that field on outgoing messages, and so MUAs that
otherwise might have been tempted to fill it in themselves (by repeating
the list address) will then refrain from doing so.

In other words, it's a bug that requires cooperation from both sides.
If our side stops cooperating, the bug might go away :-).
