Yes, such things are nice. The well-known URI [0] system is also sometimes used for this, at least there's one entry for Thunderbird under the "autoconfig/mail" subdirectory. Having some of those auto-config methods available for git send-mail could be nice, as it would lower the barrier a bit further, even if most devs are probably able to check their SMTP endpoint and port.
