I was just coming to that conclusion myself.  I thought the "Reply To" 
might do it because it either has users@ or an actual email but it 
doesn't seem to apply only to unsubs.  Too bad gmane couldn't 
automatically send such responses to the list for those folk, but I 
think there's more to it than that, plus it's not a group admin's job to 
have to code things like that.

What if all responses included a CC: to users@; everything you see on 
gmane comes from the list, so that would send it back to the list, at 
least.  Not as good as an Inbox, but still to the list.  Assuming the 
list threads, that is.  I've never used it. Time for some sandbox time 
on the "list" I think, when I get time<g>.  Time; what IS that, anyway?

Cheers,
