Clearly label "Thread overview" and "Reply instructions"
so users can quickly skip stuff they're not interested in.

Additionally, note the fact the thread view allows quick
navigation within the thread to avoid extra network requests
and improve the display for single-message threads.

Finally, use <hr> to better-delineate sections of each page.
