I'm not sure it's always a shortcoming.  It's nice to be able to
kill-file an entire long blathering argument about nothing-in-particular
in one swell foop.  ;-)  If people keep changing the subject (e.g. from
"Ada is God's gift to programmers" to "Ada sucks" and back again) then
it's harder to kill.
