Problem with stock messaging app: Sending a message to two or more people

Been using Handcent for a while, but at 8+mb I've decided I will just live with the stock messaging app (As I hardly use any of teh features on Handcent anyway, and I don't want to root) to save some space.

However, one problem:

If I create a new text message and send it Mr X and Mr Y, then the app creates a new conversation under the name "Mr X; Mr Y" in which my sent message is saved, but all future replies from either Mr X or Mr Y (as you would expect) are saved under the individual conversations.

Is there a way to stop the app from creating these unnecessary group conversation lists with only one message in them, and instead save one copy of the message in each of Mr X's conversation and Mr Y's conversation.

Handcent does this automatically, so hopefully there's something in the settings I can change.

So it seems this is just an issue with Sense. Any last suggestions? I can't believe that such a simple and obvious thing to implement like this doesn't work.

What even is the point in the app creating this new "group" conversation that contains 8 copies of the message "fancy pub tonight" for it then to not even show any replies in the same conversation. Unless I'm missing something?
