This issue has been argued to death almost since the beginning of mailing 
lists, so I don't think there's much value in arguing it here again.  
Especially for a list that's existed as long as this one has.

Personally, I tend to lean toward the munging camp, but the no-munging camp 
has good points.  For me it comes down to the sophistication of both the 
user and their mail program.  Mailing lists aimed at more technical users 
can more easily get away with not munging Reply-To.
