I hope that comment is wrong?  The original patch was described as:

| >It would be nice if when a List-Post: header is detected and the 'Reply
| >to List', the 'Reply' option opened a compose window addressed to the
| >From: header address of the original post if the Reply-To: address
| >matches the List-Post: address. This would ease the task of replying to
| >the original poster only in cases where the list software has set the
| >Reply-to: header to the list address.

Now, the above (original patch description) sounds quite reasonable to me.
Michael's summary doesn't (since reply should respect the reply-to: if
there is no reply-to-list).
