You can also feel it as a bug in your mail client. An intelligent mail
client should detect the "List-ID" header and offer an option "Reply
to the list". Unfortunatelly just a few mail clients implement it
(Kmail does while Outlook, Gmail web interface, Thunderbird... don't
do it).

However, intelligent mail clients (as Kmail) do also offer an option
"Reply to the author" which replies to the "From" header regardless of
the "Reply-To".

Setting/forcing the "Reply-To" header with the value of the list is
not an ellegant solution even if it's probably the most suitable
option these days full of painful mail clients.
