Who knows, and why do you care?

That's something that the highly paid engineers at Google should figure out, not something that random Internet people on HN should have to figure out when replying to your comment.

My point is that we've had 5 people suggest different mutually incompatible, and all subtly broken, solutions to this "simple" problem. Perhaps the solution Gmail settled on wasn't done so out of naïveté.

Five people just throwing ideas off the top of their head in their free time. That only makes Google not having any solution with years and billions look all the worse.
