> If you rename a topic you break gmail threading, leaving a discontinuous conversation view in gmail:

That’s the way Gmail works. GMAIL developers chose not to honor reply-to headers. People who want a MUA that honors those headers should use a compliant MUA. As soon as you implement some solution, Gmail will change, or people will be sad that some other broken MUA is broken. They should switch to Mutt or Thunderbird or Eudora.
