I don't understand how that is an issue. Why do you want to see your
own mails in the inbox ?
For each ML I subscribe to, I create a new label and a new filter, and
I set it to skip inbox and archive because I do not want ML to clutter
my inbox. Much better that way :)
But to each his own.
That said I think it's always better to have configure options and control.
