What are you referring to in RFC4685? (Atom Threading
Extensions)
The "replies" link relation? I'm not sure that it means what we
need for this use-case.
No, the `in-reply-to` element. It doesn’t sound like the link
relation was I thinking of at first glance but the definitions
are congruent. Even my proposal for how it could be usefully
displayed is essentially that of a thread. It’s kind of
embarrassing that I didn’t notice immediately.
(Nearly no one supports 4685, of course. But then neither do they
support the hypothetical link relation.)
I've used threading for both comments and capturing private messaging. I
agree it can work here, but a qualifier similar to rel would be better
to cover off Martin's bookmark use case.
