List: headers were not included in "Brief" style for the reason of space conservation. I'd use the archive link often when quoting a conversations. Mailing list operators and therefore like giving users an unsubscribe that's visible (hence email footers) because unsubscribing users can be impatient. Maybe the List-ID doesn't add much (though I've omitted <...> bit from display). Is this sufficient?

You're right though that a fully customizable preview pane layout would be serving the user best.

The display occurs on styles: Enterprise, Fancy, Standard, and Long. The format is:
