I wanted to explain why hijacking threads is bad practice. In this
example, you would normally start a new mail along the lines of "Please
backport XYZ to ABC" and if somebody needed to check why a specific bug
fix was back ported in for example 2 yeaqrs, such a mail will be easier to
find. Also of course there is the risk that the right people won't read
your mail if you hijack a thread.

Lars
