-1.

The behaviour you've provided is not what I want, from two perspectives:
        - currently it's clear what will happen when I use M-RET or
          C-uM-RET without me having to think about whether the cursor
          is over an open message,
        - often I'll be reading an open message and I want to open all
          of the rest to look at some context. That's a little more
          awkward after this change.
