Either I'm missing something important, or you're disregarding the way
most existing MUAs deal with Reply-To.

They _should_.  Many don't.

I understand what you're saying:  It would be nice if MUAs would
interpret Skip's Reply-To as "Please use this instead of my From: address 
in any replies."  Unfortunately, that most often isn't what happens.

List reply is a concept supported by mutt and GNUS.  While it would be
terrific if it were supported more broadly, I don't think it's caught
on much beyond those two.
