It is indeed hard to follow on github, and would be even worse with bigger
threads.
Email readers show threads in a hierarchical way, we can see who answered to
who, discussions can fork to completely different aspects of an issue without
being mixed together.

Anyway I have no this feature on GMail web interface. But yes, sometimes it's usefull. 

On github you can make new issue and move some messages, it shoud be done by moderator.

A github thread does not show what I read / what I have to read, does it now ?

On github you have notifications about new messages in subsribed issues, and if you follow links from https://github.com/notifications these links disappear.  

Also, don't forget about browser bookmarks and other plugins for that, web much more flexible than emails.
