Yeah, people did that sometimes and it sucked. At the same time I see
Jeff's point: 300-email threads tend to contain a lot of dross. Could we
address it by allowing only *very short* annotations? The limiting case
would be 1-bit annotations, ie you could star the important messages in a
thread; but that might be too restrictive.
