This is a pretty interesting idea (though not something i'm likely to
get around to in the near future personally).

Just to flesh it out a bit further, do you think that such a thread
object would have anything attached to it other than message-count? or
maybe a list of message-ids?  dates?  aggregated senders?  aggregated
recipients?
