Funnily, I also didn't notice that for years. But now that I do, it
started annoying me.

Well, I'd say a thread root doesn't really need to be the real root of a
thread, just the top-level article that's displayed by Gnus in the
summary buffer (which depends on `gnus-fetch-old-headers' and others).
And I guess that's identitfiable, e.g., the articles that get their
summary thread tree style from `gnus-sum-thread-tree-root',
`gnus-sum-thread-tree-false-root', and
`gnus-sum-thread-tree-single-indent' are the root articles of a thread.

That would be awesome.
