I would think there oughta be a way to tell if a person is hijacking a
thread, or if it's a minor modification of an original thread.  I could
be wrong, but I'd think it could be done.

This all started with people saying gmail threading is hosed by this
stuff.  My 2 cents:  I tried using gmail for mailing lists, but I didn't
like it.  I am very anal about using filters to sort incoming messages.
Gmail allows this (i.e., put all cf-talk messages in their own folder).
However, you don't get a new message alert if the message skips the
inbox.  So I was always finding a load of messages I didn't know about.
The reason I use alerts is so that I don't HAVE to look at my inbox
every 5 minutes.  However, I do use gmail for a lot of non-mailing list
email, and I love it.
