If you look at the screenshot here, what I was talking about is the thread
about Text_reST - both messages have the same indent level as the reply to
the Turba address book thread.

Because threads with the link-to-thread image have a different indent
level than either of the above possibilities. Also, you can see that the
Text_reST thread has no link image, so that's a new inconsistency.

It is relatively unobtrusive, but it does catch the eye a little - also I
would have no idea what it meant if I didn't know the code or use the
mouseover, but icons are hard like that in general.

I think it's a half measure, but not bad enough to completely veto it. You
did ask what others thought, so, my thoughts are on the table. :)
