why no-one has tried to solve this "problem". Or maybe I just don't know
about it?

AFAICS it would be possible to get mailing list managing software, like
mailman, to add a header to email sent to lists indicating the senders
preference. Then well-behaved mail clients can use that header as a hint
when the user replies to a mailing list.

What do you think?
