Yep, but for users with slow connections, it is very common to see that spinner
image running forever (see Bug 26290), meaning that the content was not sent
yet. In those cases the only option the user have if he wants to post his reply
is to send it again (without knowing if the first try was successfully
submited). And this cause the duplicated threads. This is very common:
