I'm not quite sure, either. My main concern is that under some
circumstances Orgmode will store a link to a 'thread' filter folder
even if the user does not intend to. And if I am the user I expect to
have complete control over my computer.

Using the 'folded' state of a thread gives control when storing a link
to a message that is part of a thread but not if the message is *not*
(yet) part of one. That is: A single message is a message in a threat
that has exactly one message.

Currently I am not sure anymore if storing a link to a thread is that
important. Storing a regular link to a message that is part of the
threat would be sufficient as opening the message in it's folder will
also show the threat the message is part of.
