Thanks, that's useful; cc-ing Levend.

[Side note: I wrote in the past:

but probably that was unclear of me.  The convention on _this_ list[1] is
to reply to all participants in a thread, so new participants do not
need to subscribe if they don't want to.  Thunderbird (e.g.) seems to
be good at doing that for what it's worth.]

[1] at least as I perceive it; please feel free to correct me if I
have misunderstood
