Filters can only be *automatically* applied when receiving the message.

That's doable via a filter with several rules an scripts but introduces
quite some duplication.

Via the "Pipe to Program" condition Evolution can use an external
command to process a message, then process it based on the return value.
Scripts used in this way must return an integer value. See
http://library.gnome.org/users/evolution/3.4/mail-filters-conditions.html . Note that \
this does not support altering the message source or display.

Would probably require fixing

Not possible I think.

Not possible plus I don't understand the usecase.

Apart from the "Wants to receive HTML mail" per-contact setting not
possible I think.

I don't understand what you miss. Could you elaborate?
