I'm happier with the current situation, too! I'm using KMail and my filters 
still work fine, and there's a reply-to-list button, too. When I joined the 
list I was really confused that replies would be sent to the whole list, 
instead of to the author of the post. With munging off it is more intuitive.

Anyway, I don't understand why some people make such a fuzz about it. Is it so 
hard to get used to the new settings, even if it's the standard setting among 
mailinglists?
