I think its very much the second case. Outlook/exchange is the only client that I 
know uses these headers. I don't think anyone has of yet reverse engineered the 
"Thread-Index" header and thus been able to use them. 
Certainly no linux client I can find uses them (i've raised wishlist bug reports with 
several to add support, as I'm doing with kmail). I've after asking around, to other 
windows client seem to use them either. (But then "most" windows users use 
outlook/exchange) 
 
It is rather annoying that outlook/exchange does not use the rfc optional headers for 
threading as just about every other client in exsistance does, but given its 
pervasivness, supporting these prioprity headers seem like the only option. (given 
the unlikelyness of microsoft falling into line and using the rfc optional headers.)
