I think that's an excellent idea!

Fact is I'm already a member of another list that did exactly this;  
the Logic User Group. Since I like to get even the noise I subscribe  
to both of them and have my inbox filtering set up to drop both lists  
into the same folder. So in my reading praxis I don't need to know if  
a post is OT or part of the regular list. I just scan the subject  
lines, select unread posts and make a quick decision depending on my  
working situation; which to delete en masse, read or file for later  
reading.
