It's fundamentally broken, but the problem is in the mail readers
(MUA).  There's no header (that I'm aware of) that portably tells an
MUA - "Hey, for a group follow up, don't go to the original list, go
to THIS one instead, but for an individual followup (i.e. reply) still
address that to the original author."

This is one reason why munging reply-to is evil.  But in this case
we've agreed that following up to python-dev is more important than
preserving the ability to reply to the author.
