True.  If we insert the list address at the head of the reply-to
list then broken MUAs would seem unlikely to change their behaviour
(or so quick testing here with a couple such MUAs suggests).

BTW: Do Mutt et al correctly handle multi-address Reply-To?

My bad.  To save myself typing I started the message by doing a
group reply to a -dev post and whacking the headers to match (which
I then failed to do cleanly).
