Yeah, I've done that for years.  I notice duplicates by looking at CCs
anyway.  Note that our archives system is perfectly prepared to deal
with messages cross-posted to several mailing lists, as a first-class
feature.  I don't think there's a strong need to police them
specifically.

If consensus is that we should completely forbid cross-posting, we can
talk about that.
