Having an isolated section for resteems may sound like a great way to sort things out, but unless one makes the effort to periodically CHECK that section, it is likely it will become forgotten and all the good posts that were worthy of a resteem will have been missed. Its a catch 22 situation in my opinion.
In the month that I have been here on Steemit, I have only unfollowed one person and that was not because of resteems, but because they were posting way too many articles each and every day that were just not worthy of my time.
On the other hand, I have discovered many really good posts via resteems, so I think it is worth it to sort through my feed and have the opportunity to at least evaluate what the people I follow think are worthy posts. For the most part, I'm not disappointed in what I find.
On my own page, of course I want people to be able to readily recognize my posts from those that I resteem. The resteem icon does that, however it could be made a little more obvious (especially for new users). I think that change would be better than having an entirely separate section for resteems. I don't just willy nilly resteem stuff; it has to be something I think is worth resteeming, so if its on my page, its probably worth looking at.
