I agree, but it is a double-edged sword due to the temptation to simply reply to 
an existing email and use it as the basis of a new post.  Unless that header 
line was also able to be edited it would cause problems.

Hmmm.... I just checked, and indeed the list does have an In-Reply-To header 
line.  As James pointed out, apparently Gmail is smart enough to recognize the 
change in the Subject and the exception is made to the filtering.
