Raw messageids have the big big advantage that you can get them locally
in your mailreader, and you can dereference them locally... I type
esc-X id:$id<enter> and 20ms later I have the whole thread open. Maybe
I just travel too much, but travel time is often long and uninterrupted
and thus pretty nice to work on patches.

I don't really see the problem, even with gmail style messageids

isn't that bad.
