So instead of values being stored, we grab the substream, reset it to 
find the start and then ask it for the length?

Seems fine to me; actually having a handy GMimeStream into each block of 
interest is theoretically quite useful - and if the headers aren't 
duplicated I would be expecting some kind of memory saving (and possibly 
speed) too.

Sounds a great solution to me!
