I would find it useful at times, though it certainly wouldn't be my
default.

What I would find more useful is something similar to
gnus-summary-refer-parent-article which would find things with
matching subjects.  Or maybe this could be done automatically when
there is no parent.  That seems like a nice default action, for those
of us with non-nil gnus-summary-make-false-root, comparing with
gnus-subject-equal.

Kai, would this make you happy?  After a ^, reparenting shouldn't be
that bad.
