Perhaps this has been discussed earlier, but trees are problematic for both the old and the new SI. The main problem is that there is no way in either to start a clear "new subject". We start one by either "responding" to the last message, "responding" to our last message, or "responding" to message #1.

I think I just led myself into suggesting we need a way of starting a "new subject".

Best Regards,
Jim

P.S. "Subject" may be a bad choice in light of SI semantics, where Subject is used to refer to a thread. Maybe "New Topic" might be a better choice?
