It still unnecessarily breaks the NOV format.

The right way would be to add an extra field to the end of each line
in the .overview file, like this:

	[...]	Xref: blah blah blah	To: ding@gnus.org

and then add a new escape to `gnus-summary-line-format' with semantics
like 

	%X	Name of the poster unless it matches
	        `gnus-uninteresting-senders', content of the From:
	        header otherwise.

Personally, I split in and outgoing mail into the same folders, so my
email conversations are in one place, nicely threaded.
