Hmm, why do people consider this a problem? People apologize for resurrecting a thread on occasion, I never understood why. I see two possibilities: if I deleted the old messages, reusing the thread has no effect for me except a Reply-to which I don't see, and a "Re:" in the subject. If I still have the old messages, I don't need to look for context in case I need it. The first scenario is a meh, the second is a win.
