Ah, a case of wrong-tool-for-the-job then :)

I don't think it really matters [1].

Reply to list works reliably, reply to author requires mouse interaction to be 
reliable, reply as a shortcut is out of the picture due to broken lists.

It is a pity but using shortcuts is dying out, more and more things start to 
require clicking and touching :(

Luckily the only affected action currently is reply to author which is not 
often required :)

Cheers,
Kevin

[1] if those with limited "mail clients" prefer reply to mimick reply to list, 
then we should do that. Reply's consistency is broken for everyone anyway and 
thus mostly unused anyway.
