A true collapse-thread function is a necessity, and it will be in tune with
the general mutt philosophy of giving the user full power to configure it as he
sees fit. Curently the only way to have a 'always-collapsed' index is to remap
'q' to 'Q<ESC>V<ESc>v', that is uncollapse and collapse again when you return
from the pager. The problem is the the screen gets completely redrawn and you
will suddenly find yourself at the end of the message with a single message on
the screen.
So can you just submit the patch.
Thanks.
