I am sincerely lost on this issue. Unless your mail client is elderly, I can't imagine ignoring a thread to be anything more than a single keyboard shortcut. 

But I don't wish to sound insincere, when claiming the opposite.

That said, I wouldn't care if there were two lists, as long as I could subscribe to both and one wasn't relegated to getto status.
