Some thoughts:

OTOH that's why mail programs usually implement a reply and a
"reply all" or "group reply". If the reply-to does not point to
the list this allows a participant more easy control.
In addition, some mailer tend to hide the sender address so it
is not that easy to respond privatly.

That said, i personally don't disagree with this request.
Any differing opinions or strong feelings about this?
