Depends on how you see it. A list post is precisely one of the cases where I want replies directed towards another address, and that other address is always the list address. Which means the Reply-To rewrite represents 100% correct use of the header. But maybe the client, not the list handler, ought to do it...
Apart from that, a "Private Reply", if implemented, should perhaps not directly ignore Reply-To, but rather search Reply-To, Sender, From... (in that order) until it finds an address different from the list post one.
