Rule 1 for complex and divergent mail threads is to change the
Subject header when the subject changes. If you don't do that,
your mail is rather likely to get junked.

I think that IETF last call threads should stay on the main IETF
discussion list. That is exactly the right place for them.
It's rather trivial to filter them into a dedicated folder;
I have one called 'lastcallsin', that also picks up most
WG Last Call threads, although those have less standardised
subject headers.
