- The user interface: how do we give threading information to users?  Have
mhl(1) display a trn-style message tree? (which I admit that I was always
partial to?).  Is it only via pick?  Indent subject lines in scan? (which
to me throws away some of the useful information).

- (Optional) How do users navigate or select messages across a thread?

If you use pick to give the threading information to use[r]s, then relative
message numbers would seem to to that. Note, then, that sub-threads work
naturally and easily. Just give pick a message sequence generated by previous
invocation of pick.
