I instead would personally prefer that everybody do exactly what
Jim does, and change the subject line when posting a reply to a
thread, if the subject of the reply differs from the subject line
for the original message that started the thread.

For the some of you who choose to use an MUA that doesn't support
message threading correctly, either instead choose to use another
MUA that correctly supports threading or quit asking others to
change their behavior in order to work around the deficiencies in
the MUA you've chosen to use.
