Selective forwarding to -devel, perhaps?

Example.  I am not normally interested in ITPs.  I just happened to
spot one which caught my eye.  I would guess that a lot of ITPs are
like that.  The idea of them going to -devel is, I think, a good one
in principle.  I'd prefer not to have to subscribe to Yet Another List
for something of only marginal interest.

But I'm sure others may disagree....
