 |Steffen's recent mentioning of his target "re`work the addressing scheme"

not really reworking, i only want to overhaul all the stuff and
make the thread display and especially thread selection รก la
"&PARENT" work.  All to often i say something like "copy &x +Y"
and i don't get the complete thread, and threads that are grouped
together in say mutt(1) are placed in subgroups..  Etc.  Say, in
the Re: detection we should MIME decode and take no care for
whitespace nits, as has shown by Bob Tennent a while ago.

Yes, this troubles me too, it is yet stated in TODO:

  . The :d modifier is extremely useless even though POSIX compliant (No
    deleted message or deleted message header shall be displayed by any
    mailx command other than undelete.)
    If i say p:d or f:d it should work.
