> so long as everything we want to "point to" and share has a URL This is something I wish was a standard part of email, actually. There are times when I want to refer to an email thread (say, in a ticket in our issue tracker) and I have to resort to either quoting all the relevant parts verbatim or saying something like "for context, search for the email sent on 2015-11-20 by foo@bar with the subject line 'widget is broken'". I'd love something like `mailref:[identifier]` to be widely understood by browsers and email clients. Mailing lists that are readable on the web partially solve this, but it's still not great UX to be sent away from my email client just to read another email.
